AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Bmw has 17 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 40,275 miles. Recurring tyre and brake advisories, combined with a history of DPF and turbo failures, indicate substantial future maintenance costs.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,251 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine usage.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 7 tests (Aug 2019, Sep 2020, Sep 2021, Sep 2022, Aug 2023, Sep 2024) suggest chronic wear.
- Recurring brake disc advisories across 4 tests (Aug 2019, Sep 2020, Sep 2021, Sep 2022) indicate ongoing wear.
- Major failure for Offside Rear Tyre cut (Jul 2018) and Nearside Front Headlamp (Jul 2018) show past neglect.
- The 2010 BMW diesel engine has a history of DPF and turbo failures (N54, N20) that are costly to repair.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,251 mi/yr) suggests light, careful use.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
- Recent MOT pass (Sep 2024) confirms current roadworthiness, despite advisories.
- Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating for a 2010 model is excellent for its age.
