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 8 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 48,687 miles. The recent low annual mileage is a concern for a high-usage vehicle.

The vehicle shows high usage averaging 12,394 miles/year, with a significant drop to 2,307 miles/year between Oct 2024 and Aug 2025, indicating a change in driving habits.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (Nov 2020, Nov 2021, Aug 2025) indicate chronic wear.
  • Two major registration plate failures (Nov 2021, Nov 2022) suggest a history of non-compliance.
  • Recent low annual mileage (2,307 miles/year from Oct 2024 to Aug 2025) is a red flag for a high-usage vehicle.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until August 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
