2013 BMW 318D SE 2.0L Diesel · WP13 KFF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and shows a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 18 July 2025 at 248,811 miles passed without any defects or advisories. This clean result follows a similarly clean pass on 8 June 2024, suggesting the car is being kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards despite its high usage. The mileage is exceptionally high for a 2013 model, averaging over 19,000 miles per year. The record shows rapid accumulation, with the odometer climbing from 215,522 miles in January 2023 to 248,811 miles by July 2025. This indicates the car has spent most of its life performing long-distance duties, which typically puts less strain on the engine than stop-start city driving but accelerates wear on the chassis and drivetrain. A strange anomaly appears in May 2024, where the vehicle failed two consecutive tests on 9 May and 23 May before passing on 8 June. The records do not list specific defects for these failures, which is irregular. This pattern suggests the owner struggled to rectify a specific fault quickly or faced administrative issues during the testing process. A buyer must manually inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. While the MOT history is currently clean of advisories, a vehicle with nearly 250,000 miles is prone to structural corrosion and worn drivetrain mounts. Focus on checking for oil leaks and the condition of the turbocharger, as these components are high-risk failure points for this engine at this mileage.
