Our Verdict

This is a relatively low-risk option for

When inspecting this specific M135i, your primary focus should be the nearside front inner steering rack. The January 2026 MOT noted slight free play; you must verify if this has been professionally repaired or replaced, as steering components are critical for a performance-oriented xDrive model.

Given the higher-than-average mileage for its age, request a detailed service history to ensure the 2.0L petrol engine has received regular oil changes. Check the tyre condition closely, as 'tyres' are the most common failure reason for this model type across our database, and high-performance BMWs can be demanding on rubber.

As a 2.0L petrol performance model, running costs will be higher than a standard hatchback. You should expect higher fuel consumption due to the xDrive all-wheel-drive system and the M-Sport tuning.

Insurance groups for the M135i tend to be high, and maintenance costs for BMW components can be significant. While tax bands vary based on exact CO2, buyers should budget for premium parts and specialist labour for the turbocharged engine and xDrive drivetrain.

Directly address the steering rack issue identified in the 2026 MOT (41,279 miles). During a test drive, listen for any clicking or wandering sensations through the steering wheel that might indicate the 'slight free play' mentioned in the record.

Additionally, check the tread depth and evenness of the tyres. Since tyres are the leading cause of MOT failures for this model aggregate, ensure they are not excessively worn on the inner edges, which could indicate alignment issues related to the steering rack or suspension.

Registered in October 2022, this Grey BMW M135i xDrive has covered 41,279 miles in under four years. This mileage is slightly higher than the model average of 8,007 miles per year, suggesting it has been used more frequently than typical examples. The MOT history is sparse but shows a clean pass in 2025 and a recent pass in early 2026 that noted a minor steering rack issue.

The BMW M135i shows a strong aggregate MOT pass rate of 91.2% across 15,496 analysed vehicles.
