2014 BMW X4 3.0L Diesel · YA14 UFW

The 2026‑01‑20 MOT at 112,354 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the vehicle is presently roadworthy. The series of tests since 2024 have all been passed without recorded faults, indicating a stable maintenance record after earlier issues were addressed. Mileage has risen from 30,516 miles in May 2017 to 112,354 miles in January 2026, an average of roughly 9,300 miles per year, which is typical for a 12‑year‑old car. The interval between the 2024‑02‑20 test (92,088 miles) and the 2024‑11‑11 test (101,422 miles) added only 9,334 miles over eight months, showing steady use rather than abrupt mileage spikes. No prolonged periods of inactivity are evident in the record. Recurring observations of thin inner front brake pads, edge‑worn tyres and a serious fluid leak from the near‑side front shock absorber point to persistent suspension and brake wear. The 2023 failure with exposed tyre cords suggests possible sidewall damage, while repeated tyre edge wear implies mis‑alignment or worn suspension bushes. A buyer should therefore examine the condition of the suspension components, check brake disc wear and caliper binding, inspect tyre tread and sidewall integrity, and look for any structural rust or corrosion on the chassis. Overall, the vehicle shows a consistent roadworthiness status after the latest test, but the history of brake and suspension faults warrants a thorough on‑site inspection to verify that remedial work has been carried out and that no underlying structural issues remain.
