2023 BMW X2 1.5L Petrol · YC23 NDG

The most recent MOT, dated 2 March 2026, shows the car technically passed the inspection, but a failure was recorded for the nearside windscreen wiper – the blade is split and does not clear the glass effectively (defect 3.4 (b)(ii)). This is the only defect listed in the entire MOT record. There is no recurring mechanical pattern evident from the history; the sole issue is a minor wiper problem. With just one defect and no other failures or advisories, the vehicle’s condition trend appears stable rather than worsening. The low mileage – 15,118 mi on a three‑year‑old 2023 BMW X2 – works out to about 5,000 mi per year, which is well below the typical usage for a model of this age. This suggests the car has been lightly driven, but it could also indicate periods of long storage. Either way, low mileage generally means less wear on consumables such as brakes, suspension bushings and drivetrain components, though it does not guarantee that those parts are in pristine condition. Because the MOT record is otherwise clean, the main concern is the ineffective wiper blade, which is a safety issue in rain or poor visibility. A buyer should replace the blade (a cheap fix) and verify that the wiper now clears the windscreen fully. While the MOT does not highlight any other problems, it is still prudent to inspect the following in person: - The condition of the wiper mechanism and blade housing for signs of corrosion or wear.
