2018 BMW I3 0.6L Hybrid electric (clean) · EY68 AEJ

The vehicle currently holds a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 41,566 miles with no recorded defects. This represents an improving trend in maintenance standards following a failure in early 2025. The transition from a failure with multiple faults to a clean pass certificate suggests that the current owner has addressed identified issues and is maintaining the vehicle to a functional operational standard. At eight years old with 41,566 miles, this BMW i3 reflects significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 5,200 miles per year. The data shows consistent but low-usage patterns, with a gap of 8,765 miles between 2021 and 2023, and another 7,675 miles between 2023 and 2024. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension, the long intervals between tests indicate the car may have sat stationary for extended periods, which can lead to rubber degradation or flat spotting despite the low odometer reading. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the recurring pattern of tyre wear noted in the 2023 and 2025 tests. The repeated flagging of rear tyres being worn on the edge or near legal limits suggests a persistent alignment issue or uneven suspension geometry that has not been fully rectified. Inspect the current tyre set for uneven wear patterns to ensure the bushes or bushings are not prematurely failing. Since the record lacks structural corrosion or brake-related failures, the primary concern remains on the consumables and the integrity of the rubber-based components affected by low-mileage storage.
