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 19 MOT tests on record with a 84% pass rate and 43,105 miles. The high number of advisories, despite recent passes, signals significant upcoming maintenance costs.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 6,619 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though annual usage has significantly decreased in recent years.
Things to check
- Extensive recurring advisories on brakes (14 items) and suspension (8 items) across multiple tests.
- Front and rear brake pads wearing thin (Aug 2021, Aug 2024) — immediate replacement likely.
- Nearside Rear Sub-frame corroded (Aug 2021) — a serious structural integrity concern.
- Engine/Oil and Lights advisories recurring in 2+ separate tests (e.g., Aug 2021, Aug 2024).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-08, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No major structural failures recorded in the recent MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) for a 2007 BMW is excellent.
