Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Given the vehicle's age, the primary focus should be on the remaining manufacturer warranty and the presence of a full digital service record. Ensure that all original charging cables and the onboard charger are fully functional and that the software is updated to the latest version.
Negotiate based on the lack of available MOT data for this specific registration, and verify the battery health through a diagnostic report. As this is the AWD variant, check for consistent tyre wear across all four wheels, as performance EVs can be harder on their tyres.
Running costs for this electric vehicle are significantly lower than internal combustion alternatives, primarily driven by the cost of electricity versus fuel. Road tax is currently £0 for EVs, though buyers should be aware of upcoming UK legislative changes regarding EV taxation.
Insurance groups for the Seal Excellence AWD are typically higher due to the vehicle's performance capabilities and the cost of specialised EV repairs. Maintenance is generally lower than petrol or diesel cars due to fewer moving parts, with costs mainly focused on tyres, cabin filters, and brake fluid.
Inspect the blue exterior paintwork for any chips or scratches, particularly on the leading edges. Check the charging port for any signs of damage or debris that could hinder connection.
While this specific vehicle has no MOT failures on record, buyers should be mindful that the model aggregate pass rate is 90.2%. Focus your inspection on the suspension components and the condition of the tyres, as these are common wear points for heavy electric vehicles.
This Blue BYD Seal Excellence EV AWD was first registered in July 2025. While there is no MOT history available for this specific vehicle (YM25TWA), the wider model data is positive, with an average pass rate of 90.2% across 12,756 analysed vehicles. It offers a high-performance electric drivetrain in a recent model year.
Based on aggregate data from 12,756 vehicles, the model maintains a strong average MOT pass rate of 90.2%.
