Our Verdict
The 2020 BMW M4 presents a strong value proposition with an otherwise clean MOT history, though the 2024 tyre failure warrants minor scrutiny.
Prioritise checking the tyre condition and suspension components, as the 2024 MOT failure highlighted minor tyre wear. Verify service history for regular maintenance, particularly brake and engine checks. Negotiate slightly if the seller hasn't addressed the tyre replacement. Be cautious of potential hidden costs associated with BMW's premium servicing requirements.

Common Problems: BMW M4
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Crank Hub Slip / Engine Timing Issues(Serious)
The same S55 crank-hub concern that affects F80 M3s also hangs over the F82/F83 M4, especially on tuned cars making repeated hard launches.
- Adaptive Damper / Top Mount Wear(Moderate)
Stiff suspension, large wheels, and poor UK roads can leave M4s with worn dampers, noisy top mounts, or poor wheel alignment that chews through tyres.
- Convertible Roof Water Ingress / Module Risk(Moderate)
The folding-roof M4 Convertible can suffer from blocked drains, wet boot electronics, or roof-cycle faults if the mechanism has been neglected.
- Coolant / Charge-Cooling Leaks(Moderate)
Turbocharged M4s can lose coolant from expansion tanks, front coolers, or hoses. It is a common nuisance fault on hard-driven examples and should not be ignored.
