This 2008 Bmw has 15 MOT tests on record with a 93% pass rate and 30,279 miles. This fundamental discrepancy makes the vehicle unroadworthy and illegal to drive.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage, averaging only 5,068 miles per year, with a significant 44-mile increase between Nov 2023 and May 2025, indicating a potential SORN or data anomaly.
Things to check
- MOT status is 'Not valid' despite a future expiry date of 2026-05-28 — this is a critical legal and safety issue.
- Mileage trajectory is highly anomalous, averaging only 5,068 miles/year with a 44-mile jump in 2024, suggesting a SORN or data error.
- One major failure for suspension in Nov 2022, though immediately rectified, is a concern
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- No recurring failures or advisories on the same system across multiple MOT tests.
- The vehicle has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, indicating robust safety features.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
