2022 BMW M135I Xdrive Auto 2.0L Petrol · Y777 ALC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the recent MOT history reveals a reactive rather than proactive maintenance trend. While it passed its latest test in October 2025 at 27,508 miles, it had failed just one day prior at 27,503 miles. The borderline pass for rear inner brake pads indicates the vehicle was operating at the absolute limit of safety, suggesting the previous owner only addressed critical components once they reached a legal failure point rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. At 27,508 miles over a four year period, the car has averaged approximately 6,877 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-to-moderate usage patterns. This relatively low mileage generally suggests that mechanical wear on the xDrive drivetrain and engine components should be minimal. However, the short interval between the failure and the pass in October 2025 shows that the repairs were performed specifically to rectify immediate safety defects, specifically the structural tear in the offside rear tyre and pad failure. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the rear braking system to ensure the thin pads did not score the discs. The previous failure of the offside rear tyre due to a structural tear or separation is a significant concern, as this often indicates impact damage or poor tyre quality rather than simple wear. You should also check the remaining tyres for uneven wear or alignment issues, particularly if the nearside inner wear noted in the 2025 failure was caused by a faulty geometry setting. Given the high-performance nature of the model, inspecting the suspension bushings and control arms for signs of premature fatigue is essential before purchase.
