2020 BMW I3 Electric · OV70 RUW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in August 2025 at 25,074 miles showed a pass despite an advisory for a distorted nearside rear inner road wheel. This follows a failure in October 2024 where the vehicle failed on tyres and the tyre pressure monitoring system. While the car is passing its tests, the recurring issues suggest that components are only addressed once they reach a failure threshold. At 25,074 miles over six years, this BMW I3 has significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 4,180 miles per year. This low usage often preserves mechanical components like the engine and drivetrain, but it can lead to specific issues mentioned below. The record shows a gap of over 7,000 miles between the November 2023 and October 2024 tests, followed by another 3,000 miles before the August 2025 inspection. The consistent low mileage is consistent with a secondary-use vehicle that may sit stationary for extended periods. A prospective buyer must physically inspect the braking system, as the record notes noted rusty brake discs across three consecutive tests dating from 2023 to 2024. On low-mileage vehicles, surface corrosion is common from lack of use, but pitting requires checking. The distorted nearside rear inner road wheel flagged in 2025 requires a close look for impact damage or structural deformation that could affect the suspension geometry or wheel alignment. Additionally, the tyre pressure monitoring system, which caused the 2024 failure, should be verified as fully functional to ensure the sensors have not degraded or failed..
