AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2007 Bmw has 22 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 30,536 miles. While many issues were addressed, the sheer volume of advisories and recurring faults indicates significant wear and potential future costs.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 8,445 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the 19-year-old vehicle shows significant wear.
Things to check
- Recurring brake failures and advisories across 10 tests (e.g., Jun 2020, May 2012) indicate chronic issues.
- Multiple suspension component advisories and failures (e.g., Jun 2021, Jun 2022) suggest ongoing structural wear.
- Tyre advisories are recurring across 6 tests (e.g., Jun 2020, Jun 2022, Dec 2023), showing consistent wear.
- Exhaust system insecurity and emissions failures (e.g., Jun 2020, Jun 2022) point to recurring mechanical stress.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-27, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent mileage trajectory averaging 8,445 miles/year, no fraud detected.
- No recent major failures or dangerous defects recorded in the last 2 years.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2017 demonstrates strong inherent safety features.
