2016 BMW M135 3.0L Petrol · YG16 SWV

The 2016 BMW M135 remains roadworthy, having passed its April 2025 MOT at 51,618 miles with no defects recorded. The consecutive passes in 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 indicate a stable maintenance record, with no evidence of worsening or improving issues. At roughly 5,162 miles per year the vehicle’s mileage is low for its ten‑year age, suggesting lighter use or extended periods of inactivity. The mileage rose from 41,386 miles in April 2022 to 45,242 miles in May 2023, then to 48,839 miles in April 2024 and finally to 51,618 miles in April 2025, a steady increase of about 3,500 to 4,000 miles each year. The interval between the 2024 and 2025 tests was 12 months, matching the typical annual mileage growth. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the brake discs and calipers show no binding or excessive wear, and examine the chassis and wheel arches for any signs of structural rust or corrosion. Check tyre tread depth and condition, and confirm that the exhaust system meets emission standards, as these components often reveal hidden issues despite a clean MOT. Review the service history for any omitted intervals that could affect timing belt or fluid condition, though the MOT record itself shows no recorded faults.
