BMW IX3 PREMIER EDITION2021 · ELECTRICITY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on December 29, 2025 at 27,288 miles. However, the maintenance history shows a trend of poor tyre management that required immediate intervention. The test failed earlier on that same day due to exposed cords on both rear tyres and a worn-limit nearside front tyre. While the immediate defects have been rectified, the recurring issues suggest the previous owner neglected basic safety consumables until failure occurred. The mileage profile is low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,458 miles per annum. Having covered 6,571 miles between the December 2024 test at 20,717 miles and the December 2025 test, the usage remains consistent and minimal. This low mileage suggests less mechanical strain on the drivetrain and electric motors, though it can occasionally lead to flat-spotting tyres or brake corrosion if the car sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and wheel geometry. The December 2024 advisory noted inner edge wear on both rear tyres, and the December 2025 failure highlighted a nearside front tyre worn on the edge. These specific wear patterns typically indicate an misalignment, worn suspension bushes, or faulty control arms. Inspect the new tyres and bushings for signs of play to ensure that the low mileage has not masked premature component degradation or incorrect set alignment.
