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

This 2005 Bmw has 10 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 32,375 miles. The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 19,365 miles per year, with a significant spike of 37,955 miles between Feb 2013 and Feb 2014, and a notable drop to 8,535 miles between Feb 2016 and Jan 2017.

Things to check

  • High annual mileage of 19,365 miles/yr (UK average 8,000) indicates significant wear and tear.
  • The 2009 MOT gap, combined with high mileage, raises concerns about the vehicle's past maintenance and usage.
  • The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, requiring immediate re-registration and a new MOT test.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
  • No MOT failures recorded across 10 tests, indicating a generally well-maintained vehicle.
  • The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2017 demonstrates a strong safety focus for this model.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory, despite high annual usage, shows no signs of odometer fraud.
