2018 BMW 3 Series 3.0L Diesel · X121 AJB

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on April 2 2026 at 76,323 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears improving, as the mechanical issues identified in the previous year have been addressed, resulting in a clear test sheet. This suggests the current owner is proactive regarding repairs rather than allowing faults to escalate into failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for this age, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year over the eight-year period. The data shows steady accumulation, moving from 29,168 miles in April 2022 to 76,323 miles by April 2026. There are no signs of long-term standing or sudden high-mileage spikes, which generally indicates that components such as rubber seals and cooling systems have been subjected to regular thermal and operating cycles. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension geometry during a physical inspection. The April 2025 test at 68,476 miles flagged worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front lower suspension arms. While the 2026 test shows these were rectified or replaced, the buyer should check for uneven tyre wear or steering pull to ensure the alignment was corrected correctly. Additionally, the inner edge wear noted on the offside rear tyre in 2025 suggests a previous alignment issue; verifying the current set of tyres is necessary to ensure this problem has not returned.
