AI verdict BUY 83/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2016 Bmw has 8 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 12,056 miles. While there are known model-specific timing chain and engine reliability issues, the car's low mileage and clean MOT history make it a strong candidate.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage of 6,876 miles/year with no anomalies, and a recent spike to 19,581 miles in the last year.

Things to check

  • BMW N54 engine and timing chain issues are known model weaknesses, despite this car's clean MOT record.
  • The recent significant mileage increase (19,581 miles in 12 months) suggests a change in driving style or usage.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
  • Perfect MOT record with 8 consecutive passes and zero failures since 2016.
  • No dangerous defects or major failures recorded across all 8 MOT tests.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,876 miles/year) for its age, suggesting light use.
