This 2006 Bmw has 12 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 30,695 miles. While mileage is consistent, the vehicle's age and past issues warrant a thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,842 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, as evidenced by readings from Feb 2009 (30,695 mi) to Nov 2016 (85,253 mi).
Things to check
- Recurring brake failures and advisories across multiple tests (Jan 2012, Nov 2015, Nov 2016).
- Recent seatbelt advisory (Nov 2016) indicates a current safety-critical issue.
- Vehicle is 20 years old with a history of recurring major and minor defects.
- MOT expired in 2017; current status is 'Not valid' with no recent test data.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,842 miles/year.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good structural integrity.
- No recent MOT failures, only advisories and past failures.
