AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2013 Bmw has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 25,750 miles. The car's past maintenance history is also a concern.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,632 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 11 MOT tests.
Things to check
- Recurring steering rack advisories across 5 tests (2017, 2018, 2019, 2022, 2023) indicate a persistent issue.
- Major failure for windscreen in July 2022, though rectified, suggests a past impact or poor repair.
- Major failure for Nearside Front Tyre in July 2022, though rectified, points to a past neglect of critical safety items.
- The most recent MOT in July 2025 failed due to a steering rack advisory, which was only just passed on retest.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until July 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent low mileage (5,632 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
