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

This 2012 Bmw has 12 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 66,781 miles. While there are some minor advisories and a significant mileage anomaly, the overall record is strong.

The vehicle shows a significant drop in annual mileage from 2015 onwards, averaging only 44 miles/year before May 2015, which is highly unusual for a vehicle of this age.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage (44 mi/yr equivalent) recorded before May 2015.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Perfect MOT record: 7 consecutive passes with no failures or dangerous defects.
  • Recent MOT pass: Valid MOT until July 2026, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
  • No structural failures: No recurring major system failures (brakes, suspension, steering) in the MOT history.
