2018 Bmw 3 Series
This blue 2018 Bmw 3 Series has passed 5 of its 6 first-attempt MOT tests; 2018 3 Series tested in 2025 passed 85.7% of first attempts. Its most recent test, on 17 June 2026, was a pass with no advisories. Mileage of 29,407 is below the middle half of 2018 3 Series tested in 2025.
CO2 band: E — 134 g/km
This car was first registered on or after 1 April 2017, so it pays the flat standard rate of £200/yr, not these banded rates. The band is shown for emissions comparison only. Check the current figures on GOV.UK.
Read from the last two years of this car's own test record, grouped by area. Each line quotes what the tester wrote and the date of the test.
Nothing recorded against these in the last two years of tests.
Tyres: last recorded 28 Jun 2023 (dangerous item), outside the two-year window.
The free record cannot show outstanding finance, insurance write-off history or a theft marker. The Full provenance report — no Data Guarantee does, with Experian data, for £5.99.

Against every Bmw 3 Series first used in 2018 and tested in Great Britain in the 2025 test year (24,316 first-attempt tests) — the most recent full year available.
| Measure | This car | Typical 2018 3 Series | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|

| Mileage at its latest test (17 Jun 2026) | 29,407 miles | 64,192 (middle half 48,922–82,578) | Below the middle half; not an outlier |

"Typical" is every Bmw 3 Series first used in 2018, any fuel or use — not adjusted for mileage. This car's figures are from its own record only. A first attempt is any test not within 10 days after a failed test of this car. A first attempt whose faults were all put right during the test counts as fixed during the test (PRS), not as a fail, as in DVSA's figures.
Bars: share of 2018 3 Series first tests that did not pass first time in 2025 carrying each item, in DVSA's wording. Right-hand note: what this car's own record shows in that area.
This car: 29,407 miles at its latest test — below the middle half.

Full provenance report — no Data Guarantee — £5.99. Data provided by Experian.
This is the public record for one vehicle, drawn from two free government sources: DVLA for the registration — make, year, colour, fuel, emissions, tax and MOT status — and DVSA for every MOT result and mileage reading since 2005. Nothing here costs anything, and nothing here identifies the keeper.
What it cannot tell you is the commercial history: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs and stolen markers. Those come from Experian and are not public. They are the difference between a car you can drive and a car you can lose — see SortedCars Reports, or read the longer guide on the free car check.
