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 14 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 24,467 miles. The mileage is low for its age, but the persistent brake issues present a significant and immediate safety concern.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,350 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 10 MOT tests.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Apr 2026): Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2026-04-17 (test 10) — immediate safety risk.
- Recurring brake pad wear advisories from 2019-04-13 to 2025-04-15 indicate chronic neglect.
- Major suspension failure on 2024-04-13 (test 9) with a fractured offside rear coil spring.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-04-17, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,350 mi/yr) suggests light use.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
- No recurring failures on critical systems like engine or transmission.
