BMW I5 Edrive40 M Sport (2023)
2023 BMW I5 Edrive40 M Sport
CarHunch is tracking 175 2023 BMW I5 Edrive40 M Sport vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 2023 BMW i5 eDrive40 M Sport is a reliability red flag: only 4.6% of the 175 vehicles tested passed their MOT first time, catastrophically below the UK average of 80%. None of the vehicles showed dangerous defects, which is the only bright spot, but the near-total failure rate suggests either systematic teething problems with this model or a cohort experiencing premature wear.
The median mileage of 10,719 miles is normal for a one-year-old car, yet these vehicles are already racking up failures and advisories at an alarming rate—the fact that both average failures and advisories sit at zero suggests most cars are failing immediately on multiple counts. If you're considering one of these, get a pre-purchase inspection from a BMW specialist and factor in imminent repair costs; this model simply isn't proving reliable at this age.
We have 175 2023 BMW I5 Edrive40 M Sport vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 2023 BMW I5 Edrive40 M Sport
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
