2016 BMW I3 Electric · YL65 KTC

The vehicle currently presents as roadworthy following a clean pass in the January 2026 test at 57,584 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of reactive upkeep rather than proactive servicing. While the most recent inspection recorded no defects, the history reveals a pattern of recurring issues with consumables, specifically braking components and tyres, which required intervention to achieve passing results. The mileage profile indicates low annual usage, averaging approximately 5,758 miles per year over its ten-year lifespan. The data shows consistent, incremental growth, with 4,262 miles covered between the January 2025 and January 2026 tests. This low-mileage pattern suggests the vehicle has been used primarily for short trips or remains parked for extended periods, which can sometimes lead to surface oxidation on unmounted metal parts. The braking system has required attention multiple times. In the January 2022 test at 36,760 miles, the tester flagged thin front brake pads and pitted front discs. This issue resurfaced in the January 2025 test at 53,322 miles, where both front and rear brake discs were noted as worn, pitted, or scored. Although the January 2026 test shows these issues were resolved, a buyer should inspect the current thickness of the pads and the surface condition of the discs to ensure the recent repairs were comprehensive. Tyre management also shows inconsistency. The record indicates multiple instances of tyres reaching legal limits or being worn on the edges, specifically in January 2019, January 2020, and January 2023. The failure in January 2020 due to tread depth below 1.6mm suggests periods where basic maintenance was overlooked. A physical inspection of the current tyre tread depth and evenness is necessary to confirm that the current owner is maintaining appropriate contact patches and checking for suspension-related wear.
