2020 BMW M135I Xdrive Auto 2.0L Petrol · EO20 XBM

As a 2.0L petrol performance model, running costs will be higher than a standard hatchback. You should expect higher fuel consumption consistent with the M135i's performance profile. Insurance groups for this model are typically higher due to its power output and xDrive all-wheel-drive system.

Maintenance costs can be significant; performance tyres and high-specification brake components are more expensive to replace than standard parts. An estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, would likely fall in the range of £2,500-£3,500 depending on driving style.

Specifically inspect the tyres and wheels. The 2023 MOT failure noted a tyre bulge caused by structural separation, and the 2026 MOT noted edge wear on the nearside front. Check for any signs of uneven tread wear across the entire width of the tyre, which could suggest tracking or suspension issues.

Additionally, ensure all seatbelts are fully functional and unobstructed, as the 2023 test was initially hindered by a child seat preventing a full inspection. Check the brake pads and discs, as high-performance models like this M135i can experience more rapid wear if driven spiritedly.
