2017 BMW 320 2.0L Diesel · YA67 AXP

A consistent track record of clean roadworthiness defines this vehicle, as evidenced by the most recent pass on 13 April 2026 which recorded no defects. The MOT history shows a stable trend of compliance, with the majority of annual inspections resulting in passes without any mechanical failures. While there were minor advisories regarding registration plate deterioration and tyre condition in 2020 and 2021, the recent consecutive years of testing have been entirely free of recorded defects, suggesting a period of consistent mechanical compliance. The vehicle has covered 93,979 miles over approximately nine years, representing an average annual accumulation of roughly 10,442 miles. This usage pattern is typical for a vehicle of this age and suggests a regular driving cycle rather than long periods of stationary use or excessive high-mileage transit. Mechanically, this level of usage implies that while major components like the drivetrain and suspension have been subjected to standard wear, the vehicle has not been subjected to the extreme stresses associated with significantly higher annual mileages. Prospective buyers should pay specific attention to the brake system and tyre condition based on previous advisories. Although the 2021 advisory regarding worn rear brake discs was not carried forward into subsequent tests, it is prudent to inspect the rear brake pads and discs for uneven wear or scoring. During a test drive, listen for any grinding noises from the rear wheels during braking and feel for any pulsations or judder through the brake pedal, which could indicate disc thickness issues or uneven surface wear. Regarding the tyre history, the 2020 advisory for a cut in the nearside rear tyre should be noted, though no further tyre-related issues have appeared in the records. It is essential to physically inspect the sidewalls of all four tyres for any signs of bulging, cracking, or previous repairs. Additionally, ensure that the registration plates are in good condition and clearly legible to avoid any issues with visibility, as this was a recurring advisory in the earlier history of the vehicle.
