2022 BMW I3 Electricity · KM22 WDW

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT on 14 May 2025 at 8,246 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the owner immediately addressed a critical failure recorded just one day prior. While the failure on 13 May 2025 identified a structural defect in the nearside front outer tyre, the subsequent pass indicates a proactive approach to resolving safety-critical faults. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,062 miles per year. This low usage suggests minimal mechanical wear on the electric drivetrain and suspension components. However, such low mileage often implies the car spends long periods stationary. In electric vehicles like this BMW i3, extended sitting can occasionally lead to flat spotting on tyres or corrosion of brake discs, though no specific issues with these areas were flagged in the most recent test. A buyer should personally inspect the tyres to ensure no further structural damage or uneven wear has occurred, given the previous bulge on the nearside front. The nearside rear tyre warning from the May 2025 test warrants a check of the remaining tread depth and any potential sidewall cracking. Because the mileage is low, the inspector should also verify that brake discs are free of heavy pitting and that calipers have not seized due to lack of use.
