2016 BMW 220 2.0L Diesel · YJ65 DLM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 11 February 2026 at 91,448 miles, and the earlier failure on 10 February 2026 was rectified without recorded defects. The pattern of passing after a single failure, repeated in 2024, indicates a stable maintenance trend with no recurring faults evident in the record. Mileage has risen from 69,312 miles in May 2024 to 88,581 miles by May 2025, a gain of roughly 19,000 miles in twelve months, then to 91,448 miles by February 2026, adding just under 3,000 miles in nine months. This suggests a period of relatively heavy use followed by a slower mileage accumulation, but the overall average of about 9,100 miles per year aligns with typical usage for a ten‑year‑old BMW 220. No unexplained gaps appear in the log, and the absence of recorded advisories points to a clean service history. A prospective buyer should still examine wear items that the MOT does not capture. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, as high mileage can accelerate tyre degradation. Verify brake disc thickness and pad wear, ensuring no hidden scoring or glazing, even though no binding was flagged. Examine suspension components—coil springs, shock absorbers, and bushings—for signs of leakage or uneven wear, particularly given the vehicle’s mileage spikes. Finally, conduct a visual check for any surface corrosion or structural rust that may not have been noted in the MOT but could affect long‑term durability.
