Description
2013 BMW 318d Sport Touring - F31
Selling my 2013 BMW 318d Sport Touring. It's now done 184,000 miles, so I'm being completely upfront about the mileage and condition, but it's a genuine, usable BMW with a good amount of recent maintenance and some important work already carried out.
It's been a great car for me and is still a very practical, economical estate with plenty of life left in it.
The good stuff
184,000 miles
MOT until November 2026 - NO ADVISORIES
4 brand-new tyres
New front brakes
Propshaft guibos recently replaced
Gearbox serviced
Timing chain replaced at 80,000 miles
Recently serviced - engine oil and filter changed
Upgraded touchscreen with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
Electric tailgate
Sport specification
Practical and economical 2.0 diesel estate
The car drives well and has had a lot of the expensive/important maintenance taken care of. The timing chain being done at 80k is particularly worth mentioning, along with the recent propshaft and gearbox work.
The not-so-good bits
I'm not going to pretend it's immaculate - it is a 184k-mile car and is priced accordingly.
Alloy wheels would benefit from a refurbishment
Front bumper has previously been poorly painted
Various age-related marks and stone chips
Driver's door central locking doesn't work, although the door locks/unlocks with the key
Boot handle doesn't work, but the boot opens normally using the button inside the car or the key fob
Driver's seat has a tear on the bolster
Interior is showing its age and is a little tatty
None of these are being hidden and I've tried to price the car accordingly.
Overall
A good opportunity for someone looking for a cheap, practical BMW estate without spending thousands on a newer car.
It's not a concours example and it's not being advertised as one, but mechanically it has had a lot of the important work done and it has a clean MOT with no advisories until November 2026.
Ideal as a daily driver, workhorse, family car.
