2016 BMW I3 0.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · DM04 BEX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive ownership pattern. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 75,735 miles passed, it followed a failure just two days prior at 75,607 miles. This failure highlighted significant front brake issues, including pitted discs and excessive fluctuation, alongside three tyres reaching the legal limit. The trend suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical faults once they threaten an MOT pass, rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per annum. There is a notable gap in records between December 2020 and March 2022, where the car covered only 1,600 miles in over fourteen months. However, usage increased significantly recently, with 24,372 miles clocked between January 2024 and March 2026. This surge in mileage correlates with the accelerated wear observed on consumables, specifically seen in the recurring failures related to tyres and brake components in the latest testing cycle. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front braking system, as the history of fluctuating brakes and scored discs indicates potential sticking calipers or worn rotors. The recurring advisories for tyres worn on the edge or perishing across 2022, 2025, and 2026 strongly suggest persistent alignment issues or suspension bushing wear that remain unresolved. Additionally, the distorted nearside rear road wheel noted in 2022 and 2025 should be checked for structural cracks or impact damage that could lead to vibrations or uneven tyre wear.
