2019 BMW I3 Electricity · DAZ 100

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT following a pass on 25 March 2026 at 52,660 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of recent deterioration regarding braking components. While the vehicle passed without defects in 2023, 2024, and 2025, the most recent testing cycle involved a failure on 24 March 2026. This failure was triggered by insufficient tyre tread depth on both rear tyres and pitted brake discs on the front axle. Although the vehicle passed the subsequent retest, these issues indicate that consumable components are reaching the end of their service life. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with typical usage for a seven-year-old vehicle. The car has covered 52,660 miles, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 29,138 miles in April 2023 to 38,352 miles in April 2024, then 45,482 miles in April 2025, and finally 52,660 miles in March 2026. This regular interval of use suggests the vehicle has not been subject to long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front braking system. The tester flagged both nearside and offside front brake discs as worn, pitted, or scored during the March 2026 tests. While these were not deemed seriously weakened, the presence of pitting often suggests the vehicle may sit for periods or that the discs have reached a stage of surface degradation that requires replacement to maintain optimal stopping performance. The recent failure regarding rear tyre tread depth also warrants attention. The nearside rear tyre was below the legal 1.6mm limit, and the offside rear was worn close to the limit. You should inspect the remaining tyres for uneven wear patterns, which could indicate underlying suspension or alignment issues. Given that the vehicle has transitioned from a clean record in 2025 to multiple consumable defects in 2026, a thorough check of the pads, discs, and tyre condition is necessary to ensure recent repairs were carried out to a high standard.
