BMW I4 EDRIVE40 M SPORT2022 · ELECTRICITY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the most recent MOT result indicates a lapse in proactive preventative maintenance. While the car passed its test on 17 June 2026 at 50,167 miles, it failed the test just five days prior for multiple avoidable defects. The failure regarding the windscreen washer and the poor front tyre condition suggests that the previous owner only addressed issues once they triggered an inspection failure rather than monitoring vehicle health between intervals. The mileage reflects a high usage pattern, averaging approximately 12,500 miles per year over its four-year life. Between the June 2025 test and the June 2026 test, the vehicle covered 13,699 miles in a single twelve months. This rapid accumulation suggests consistent heavy use, likely on motorways, which accelerates the wear on consumable components and suspension bushings. The lack of defects in the 2025 record shows the vehicle was in good condition then, but the recent failures highlight a shift in maintenance standards. A buyer must inspect the front suspension alignment and tyre geometry. The tester flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as worn on the outer edges, which often points to incorrect camber, worn control arm bushes, or steering rack issues. The cut on the nearside tyre also necessitates a check for potential structural damage to the sidewall. Given the high mileage, a thorough check of the brake pads and discs is required to ensure uneven wear has not occurred due to the weight of the electric drivetrain.
