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

This 2017 Bmw has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate. The most critical issue is a severe mileage anomaly, with only 72 miles recorded in the last 12 months, which is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.

The vehicle recorded 69,739 miles by Jan 2026, but then only 72 miles were recorded in the subsequent 12 months, indicating a severe and unexplained mileage anomaly.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Rear Tyre had a bulge causing partial structure failure (Oct 2022).
  • Severe mileage anomaly: Only 72 miles recorded in the last 12 months (Jan 2026 retest).
  • Recurring brake advisories: Front pads and discs flagged in 3 separate tests (Oct 2022, 2023, 2024).
  • Recurring tyre advisories: Multiple tyre wear advisories across 3 tests (Oct 2022, 2023, 2024).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for the next 3 years.
  • No major structural corrosion or suspension failures noted in the MOT history.
  • The vehicle has consistently passed its retests after initial failures, showing prompt repairs.
  • The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for this model indicates good overall safety features.
