2020 BMW I8 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · NA20 CEN

The most recent MOT on 2026-02-03 recorded two tyre-related issues: a nail in the offside rear tyre and nearside front tyre wear at 2.8mm (close to legal limit) and offside front tyre wear at 3mm (also near limit). These defects were classified under 5.2.3 (e), indicating uneven or excessive wear. No other defects were noted in this test. Previous MOTs from 2025-02-06, 2024-03-21, and 2023-05-24 showed no recorded defects, suggesting a period of stable performance. The only recurring issue identified is the tyre wear observed in the latest test, which may indicate improper inflation, alignment, or driving habits. However, no pattern of escalating defects was found in the history. The vehicle’s mileage of 24,819 miles over six years equates to roughly 4,136 miles per year, which is low for its age. This could imply lighter use or extended periods of inactivity, both of which might affect components like tyres, brakes, and suspension. Low mileage does not inherently indicate poor condition, but it may mask wear from lack of use, such as dry rot in rubber parts or seized moving components. The trend in MOT results shows no worsening condition, as the vehicle has passed all tests prior to 2026.
