2020 BMW I3ELECTRICITY

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on March 9 2026 at 27,931 miles. While the most recent test initially failed due to headlamp aim misalignment, the issue was rectified immediately to achieve a pass. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has maintained a clean record without recorded defects, structural corrosion, or mechanical advisories across the last three testing cycles. The mileage profile is notably low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,655 miles per year. There is a significant jump in usage between March 2024 (12,870 miles) and March 2026 (27,931 miles), where the car covered over 15,000 miles in years. The low annual mileage suggests the car was likely used for short trips, which often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components despite low mileage. The failure in March 2024 at 12,860 miles highlights a critical lapse in maintenance, where all four tyres failed for perishing and exposed cords. This is a classic symptom of a vehicle sitting for extended periods without movement, causing the rubber to dry out and crack. A buyer must physically inspect the current set of tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spots, as low mileage does not prevent age-related tyre failure. Given the low-usage history, a physical inspection should also focus on the condition of the brake discs and calipers, which can corrode when a vehicle is driven infrequently. The record shows no history of structural issues or suspension wear, but the headlamp aim failure in the latest test suggests that the electronic leveling system or mounting brackets should be verified to ensure they remain secure and functional.
