About this car

This 2008 BMW 1 Series has covered 73,000 miles. Its asking price of £5,500 is £1,074 above our estimate of £4,426. To estimate its market asking price, we analyse UK dealer adverts for 7,018 BMW 1 Series cars across different ages and specifications. The asking price is now £250 lower than when we first recorded the advert 147 days ago. Ask the dealer why the advert shows fewer miles than the 73,656 recorded at the latest MOT. The latest recorded MOT expiry date is 11 June 2026, which has passed. Confirm its status with the dealer. It is for sale at Fort Used Cars in Birmingham.

Price and mileage comparison

Estimated market asking price: £4,426. The asking price is £1,074 above this estimate.

The estimate uses UK dealer asking prices, accounting for make, model, trim, version, age, mileage, fuel, gearbox, body type, driven wheels, engine size and power. It estimates an advertised price, not a confirmed sale price.

The pricing calculation includes 7,018 adverts of this make and model across different ages and specifications.

Advertised mileage is approximately 16,200 miles lower than typical for a 2008 BMW 1 Series.

Mileage concern: the advertised mileage is below the last MOT reading; ask the dealer to explain.

The recorded MOT has expired; ask the dealer for an up-to-date MOT.
