Things to check
- BMW N54 diesel engines are known for timing chain issues; this model has a high risk of future expensive repairs.
- Transport blocks left installed on front struts affecting suspension (community-reported) is a significant potential future cost.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed — clean at last test
- The vehicle has a perfect MOT pass record with no failures across 7 tests.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,560 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
