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 21 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 38,655 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2024-03-25, which is a critical red flag.

The mileage trajectory shows normal usage until 2023, but a significant anomaly exists: only 471 miles were recorded between Jan 2022 and Mar 2023, indicating a period of prolonged inactivity or potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: 3 test failures within 12 months (Jun 2017 – Jun 2018)
  • MOT expired 2024-03-25; vehicle is currently not road legal and requires immediate re-MOT.
  • Recurring major suspension failures (2012, 2023) and numerous advisories (brakes, tyres, windscreen) indicate systemic neglect.
  • The 2021-2022 mileage anomaly (5,110 miles in 2 years, then 575 miles in 1 year) is highly suspicious and suggests potential odometer tampering.

Working in its favour

  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
  • Consistent annual mileage before 2023 (9,729 miles/yr vs UK average 8,000), suggesting regular use.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories from 2024 onwards, implying a recent attempt at roadworthiness.
