AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2002 Bmw has 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 56,526 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's age and past issues warrant a thorough inspection.

Mileage is consistent, averaging 9,005 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, though a 2006 MOT gap is noted.

Things to check

  • Two MOT failures (Jun 2013, Jun 2014) with no defect details, indicating unresolved issues.
  • Recurring advisories on steering rack (2015) and suspension arm (2014) suggest ongoing wear.
  • Not valid MOT since 2016-07-09, requiring immediate re-MOT and potential repairs.
  • 24-year-old vehicle with consistent mileage but no recent MOT passes.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,005 miles/year, aligning with UK average.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the MOT history.
  • The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2017 indicates a strong safety foundation.
