Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a
When inspecting this specific vehicle, focus on the battery health and state of charge, as low-mileage electric vehicles can sometimes sit idle for long periods. Ensure the charging cables are present and that the vehicle accepts both home and rapid charging without issue.
While the MOT history shows no defects, you should still verify the service history to confirm that any manufacturer-recommended software updates or inspections have been carried out. Because the mileage is so low, check the tyres for any signs of flat-spotting or age-related perishing, even if the tread depth appears sufficient.
As an electric vehicle, running costs are primarily driven by electricity prices and insurance groups. Tax for pure electric vehicles is currently exempt from standard VED, though changes to EV taxation should be monitored.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically lower than internal combustion engine equivalents due to fewer moving parts. However, you should budget for occasional tyre replacements, as the i3 is known for high torque which can wear tyres more quickly. Estimated annual running costs are relatively low compared to petrol or diesel alternatives.
Based on the aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the tyres and windscreen washer systems, as these are common failure points across the wider BMW i3 fleet. Even though this specific vehicle has passed its MOTs without defect, these are standard wear-and-tear items to verify.
Additionally, inspect the suspension components, specifically the coil springs, which are noted as a top failure reason for this model type. Given the low mileage of 2,901 miles, any significant noise from the suspension during a test drive should be investigated thoroughly.
This red BMW i3 has covered just 2,901 miles since its first registration in June 2022, which is significantly lower than the model average of 6,325 miles per year. The MOT history is clean, with no defects recorded in the 2025 or 2026 tests. Given its age and extremely low usage, it represents a relatively fresh example within the wider i3 market.
The BMW i3 shows a high average MOT pass rate of 90.1% across the analysed fleet, suggesting generally stable mechanical reliability.
