No MOT history yet — it's too new
UK cars don't need their first MOT until they're 3 years old, so there's no test history for the 2023 BMW 116d M Sport yet. We'll have real reliability data as they start coming through for their first tests.
In the meantime, here's what we do have — older BMW 116d models with full MOT histories, and a guide to which year holds up best:

The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.
This 2023 BMW 116D M Sport hasn't yet accumulated enough MOT test records in the DVLA light-vehicle database to generate meaningful pass-rate or defect statistics — at just 136 vehicles sampled, the cohort is too small and the cars too new (most likely still within their first three years, exempt from mandatory MOT testing). You should know that MOT data simply isn't available yet to judge reliability patterns for this model year. What we can tell you is that the BMW 1 Series diesel is generally a competent compact premium hatchback with strong performance credentials from the M Sport trim, though it carries higher maintenance and repair costs than mainstream rivals. When MOT history does become available for this cohort in a couple of years, check back for real-world defect data — for now, rely on independent reviews, owner forums, and your mechanic's inspection if considering a used example.
We have 136 2023 BMW 116d M Sport vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data yet to show reliable statistics — as a 2023 model, most vehicles won't have reached their first MOT test date.
