AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2021 Bmw has 4 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 25,375 miles. The car's high-performance engine and transmission have significant community-reported reliability concerns.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual usage averaging 8,198 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent retest PASS on 2025-09-26 confirms no mileage anomalies.
Things to check
- 2025-09-26: Failed MOT for 'Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively' — indicates owner neglect.
- 2025-09-26 & 2024-09-24: Recurring 'Offside Front Tyre slightly damaged on outer sidewall' advisory — suggests ongoing tyre wear or alignment issues.
- BMW M54B30 engine and transmission: Community reports of N54 engine reliability issues (HPFP, water pump, turbo failures) and plastic timing chain guides prone to failure are significant for this model.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- 2026-09-28: Valid MOT with no immediate retest required, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent mileage: 8,198 miles/year is well within UK average, indicating no unusual usage patterns or potential fraud.
- No major recurring failures: Despite the recent wiper failure and tyre advisories, the vehicle has passed most MOTs without significant structural issues.
