This 2018 Bmw has 6 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 10,873 miles. The low annual mileage for its age, combined with the recurring brake wear, suggests potential underlying issues or neglect.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 10,873 miles in June 2021, then only 3,013 miles in the subsequent 12 months, indicating a significant drop in usage or potential odometer fraud.
Things to check

- Mileage anomaly: 3,013 miles in 12 months (Sep 2021–Sep 2022) after initial 10,873 miles in June 2021.
- All four tyres (front and rear) noted as 'slightly damaged/cracking' on 2021-06-28 MOT.
Working in its favour
- No MOT failures recorded across 6 tests since June 2021.
- Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
