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

This 2006 Bmw has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 69,456 miles. While it has a valid MOT now, the pattern of neglect and high mileage demand extreme caution.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage (940 mi/yr equivalent) before Jan 2016, followed by a significant spike to 12,362 miles/year, indicating a major discrepancy in its usage history.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomaly: 940 mi/yr equivalent before Jan 2016, then 12,362 mi/yr — highly suspicious.
  • Tyre failures: Both front tyres failed for cuts in Jul 2018, then rear tyres failed in Apr 2011.
  • Brake failures: Both front and rear brakes failed in Nov 2019, indicating a systemic neglect of safety systems.
  • Suspension failure: Offside Rear Suspension arm failed in Apr 2011, showing a pattern of deferred maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Recent MOT pass: Passed its most recent MOT in Nov 2019, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
  • No recurring engine failures: Despite high mileage, there are no recurring engine or transmission failures.
  • Consistent mileage: Once the initial anomaly was corrected, the mileage trajectory is consistent and linear.
  • Euro NCAP rating: 5-star safety rating for this model provides a strong safety foundation.
