2016 BMW 218 1.5L Petrol · YC66 RXY

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 31 May 2025 at 63,755 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently passed inspections without any recorded defects over the last three years. While the record shows failures immediately preceding the last two passes, the lack of specific defect descriptions suggests that the previous owner addressed any minor issues promptly before the re-test to ensure a clean sheet. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage profile, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between the May 2023 test at 47,462 miles and the May 2024 test at 54,655 miles, the car covered 7,193 miles. A further interval of 9,090 miles was recorded between May 2024 and May 2025. This steady accumulation suggests regular use, which is generally preferable for vehicle seals and components over long stationary periods, though the total mileage remains low for a ten-year-old BMW. Buyers should focus their physical inspection on the components most prone to wear at this age, despite the clean MOT history. Given the low mileage, check for perished rubber suspension bushes and control arm bushings, which can degrade over time regardless of distance driven. The record does not flag brake issues or structural corrosion, but a manual check of the brake discs for pitting and the underside for surface rust is advisable to confirm the vehicle matches the clean condition implied by the digital records.
