AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Bmw has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 18,676 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the severe mileage discrepancy makes this vehicle unassessable and a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows only 18,676 miles over 15 years, with a significant 2-year MOT gap in 2023, and a 2-year period (Oct 2018 to Oct 2019) where annual mileage was only 416 miles, indicating a major odometer fraud or severe data anomaly.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Aug 2014 (18,676 mi) and Oct 2014 (18,581 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
- Mileage decreased from 26,803 miles (Oct 2018) to 18,581 miles (Oct 2014) — possible odometer tampering.
- Mileage trajectory is highly inconsistent, averaging only 4,113 miles/year — well below UK average.
- No MOT recorded for 2023 — a 2-year gap in official history, highly suspicious.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until November 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current maintenance.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) for this model.
- No recurring failures on the same system since the initial suspension advisory.
