This 2016 Bmw has 8 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 22,773 miles. While there are known model-specific timing chain and engine reliability issues, the vehicle's clean history makes it a strong candidate.

Things to check
- BMW M54 engine has a history of N54 HPFP and water pump failures, and plastic timing chain guides prone to failure.
- Transport blocks left installed on front struts affecting suspension, a known model-specific issue.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
- Perfect MOT record with 8 consecutive passes and zero failures since March 2020.
- Consistent low annual mileage of 5,800 miles/year, indicating light use and less wear.
