This 2018 Bmw has 6 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 15,603 miles. The car's low annual usage is a positive, but the timing chain and N54 engine reliability issues are significant model-specific risks.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,231 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, and a recent test in Sep 2025 recorded 40,530 miles.
Things to check

- Tyre advisory on 2021-09-23: Nearside Rear Nail in tyre, indicating wear.
- BMW N54 engine and timing chain issues are known model weaknesses.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,231 mi/yr) suggests light use.
- MOT valid until 2026-09-30, indicating a recent successful inspection.
- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects in the MOT history.
