AI verdict CAUTION 65/100
AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Bmw has 12 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 64,145 miles. The recurring tyre advisories and a recent CV boot advisory warrant careful inspection.
The mileage trajectory shows normal annual usage (11,311 mi/yr) from 2019 to 2023, but a severe anomaly of only 262 miles in the 3 years before March 2025 is highly suspicious.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: Only 262 miles recorded between July 2022 and March 2025 (5 years), indicating potential long periods of inactivity or fraud.
- Service gap: No MOT recorded in 2024, suggesting the vehicle may have been off-road or SORN, raising maintenance concerns.
- Recurring tyre advisories: Nearside Front Tyre worn close to legal limit (Apr 2019) and Nearside Rear Tyre worn (Mar 2026) indicate a pattern of neglect.
- CV boot advisory: Minor defect noted in the most recent MOT (Mar 2026) — requires immediate attention.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- Strong MOT pass record: 7 consecutive passes with no failures, demonstrating a generally well-maintained vehicle.
- Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until March 2027, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- No dangerous defects: All MOT failures and advisories are minor, not posing an immediate safety risk.
