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 17 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 21,349 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated advisories and failures point to a vehicle requiring ongoing maintenance.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 11,424 miles/year, with a significant spike in 2021-2022 (103,323 mi) and a recent low in 2024 (148,759 mi), but no fraud detected.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Nov 2021, Nov 2022) escalated to major failures (Nov 2023).
  • Recurring tyre failures (Oct 2019, Oct 2019, Nov 2024) indicate a history of poor maintenance.
  • Consistent pattern of brake pad wear (Nov 2020, Nov 2023) suggests a chronic issue.
  • Shock absorber advisory noted on the most recent test (Dec 2025) requires immediate attention.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-01, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No DANGEROUS defects remain unresolved from the latest MOT.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety.
