This 2018 Bmw has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 1,767 miles. This unusual low usage, combined with a timing chain advisory from the community, warrants extreme caution.
The vehicle recorded only 1,767 miles in its first two years (Jan 2018 to Oct 2021), which is a critical and unexplained anomaly.
Things to check
- Critical mileage anomaly: 1,767 miles recorded between Jan 2018 and Oct 2021.
- First MOT at 1,767 miles (Sep 2021) is extremely low for a 3-year-old vehicle.
- BMW N54 engine and timing chain advisories from the community are high-risk components.
- Transport blocks affecting front struts (community report) indicates a specific suspension weakness.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- MOT valid until October 2026, indicating a recent pass.
- Consistent annual mileage increases since the initial low period.
