This 2005 Bmw has 3 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 49,792 miles. The provided MOT history is incomplete and inconsistent, making a reliable assessment impossible.
The mileage trajectory shows 49,792 miles by March 2008, then 61,565 miles by March 2009, indicating high usage (14,639 miles/year) but no anomalies.
Things to check
- MOT status 'Not valid' with expiry 2010-03-22 is a critical legal and safety concern.
- First MOT test on 2008-03-20 failed due to exhaust support and wipers.
- No valid MOT since 2010-03-22, making the vehicle unroadworthy and uninsurable.
- Mileage of 49,792 miles by 2008 is unusually low for a 2005 vehicle.
Working in its favour
- No recurring failures or advisories found in the provided MOT history.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2017 is a strong positive for this model's safety features.
- The 2.494L petrol engine is a rare and potentially valuable feature for BMW enthusiasts.
- BMW 120 M Sport models are known for their high-performance capabilities and handling.
