How we estimate prices and check cars

Price

Far below the going rate: £1,448 (34%) under the AskCar estimate of £4,148. Worth asking the dealer why.

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

It draws on 7,224 priced BMW 1 Series adverts across different ages and specifications, as of 12 November 2026.

A 2012 BMW 1 Series with the 2.0 diesel engine is typically advertised at £4,500: the median of the 75 for sale on AskCar, as of 12 November 2026.

Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 12 November 2026: valid until 2 December 2026.

It failed its MOT on 2 December 2025 (brake disc in such a condition that it is seriously weakened all; brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick all) and passed 1 day later, on 3 December 2025.

Mileage at that test: 93,624 miles. The advert says 93,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.
