2010 BMW X1 2.0L Diesel · YC60 XCT

Most recent MOT – 22 May 2026 – was a clean pass at 64 774 mi with no recorded defects. That tells you the car is currently road‑legal and any major safety items that were flagged in earlier tests have apparently been remedied. The recurring pattern in the MOT history is tyre wear, especially on the front wheels, and a series of brake‑pad wear warnings in 2019. In December 2019 the vehicle failed because the off‑side front tyre tread was below the legal 1.6 mm limit, and both rear brake pads were recorded as “wearing thin”. The same test also noted a cracked central front lower windscreen and a deteriorating front registration plate. By the next MOT (December 2020) the tyre wear had been reduced to “close to legal limit” on the near‑side front, and the off‑side front tyre was no longer below the minimum – suggesting the worn tyre was replaced. The brake‑pad comment disappears from the 2020 record, implying the pads were likely replaced or the wear was no longer critical. A further MOT in December 2021 again flagged the off‑side front tyre as “worn close to legal limit”, showing that tyre wear remains the most persistent issue. Overall the trend looks stable rather than worsening. After the 2019 failure the car passed the next three tests, and the only defects that re‑appear are tyre‑tread warnings, which are typical for a vehicle of this age and mileage.
