Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 24,334 miles on the odometer. With a 8.6% failure rate, the 2019 M2 Competition is rated as "Excellent" for MOT reliability.
If you own or are considering buying a 2019 BMW M2 Competition, you can expect reliable MOT performance overall. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to tyres: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating. With relatively low average mileage of 24,334 miles, many of these vehicles are still in good mechanical condition.
Tyres — 3.0% of failures
Tyres issues account for 3.0% of MOT failures on 2019 BMW M2 Competition models. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.
Seat belts and supplementary restraint systems — 0.7% of failures
Seat belts and supplementary restraint systems issues account for 0.7% of MOT failures on 2019 BMW M2 Competition models. Seat belt failures include frayed or cut webbing, faulty retractors, buckles that don't latch properly, and missing or damaged anchorages. All fitted seat belts must be functional. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per belt. Pre-MOT check: Pull each seat belt fully out and check for fraying, cuts, or fading. Ensure each belt retracts smoothly and the buckle clicks securely. Check the pre-tensioner warning light on the dashboard.
Suspension — 0.6% of failures
Suspension issues account for 0.6% of MOT failures on 2019 BMW M2 Competition models. Suspension failures typically involve worn bushes, leaking shock absorbers, broken coil springs, and damaged suspension arms. These affect ride quality, tyre wear, and road holding. Typical repair costs: £200–500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.
