The vehicle is in good condition, has been claimed 3 times, and has been transferred to another owner once.
This BMW i3 features a single-speed transmission, a 170-horsepower pure electric engine, a combined range of 340 kilometers, fast charging in just 0.7 hours, auto-dimming interior and exterior mirrors, a fully digital instrument cluster, a large color central touchscreen, connected car features, run-flat tires, cruise control, and other features, delivering an excellent driving experience and convenient usability. Furthermore, it boasts the advantages of a well-known German brand, stable resale value, spacious interior, and unique styling, making it a highly cost-effective small car. This particular car is 6 years old, with an average annual mileage of 17,700 kilometers, typical of normal family use, and has only been transferred once. The overall exterior condition is excellent, with no scratches on the wheels, no damage to the glass, but more than four exterior metal panels have been repainted, and fewer than four exterior parts have been removed or replaced. The steering wheel and buttons are unworn, the interior and seats are clean and new, there are no unpleasant odors, and all features are in perfect working order. The body frame is undamaged and has not been repaired; the powertrain is functioning well without repairs; and there are no major modifications.
The headliner is considered an "irreversible interior component." If the edges are delaminated or there are deep, hard-to-clean dark water stains, it will directly lead to a downgrade in the interior grade, even if it does not affect driving. We will not use pins or low-quality glue for cosmetic repairs.
A proper inspection relies on equipment, not just eyes. The inspector should use a paint thickness gauge to measure 50-60 points across body panels; original paint is typically 80-150 microns. An OBD diagnostic scanner reads stored and pending fault codes across all control units, and for EVs it also reads battery state of health and charge cycle counts. The car must go on a lift for the underbody check: frame rails, suspension components, oil leaks and accident repair marks are only visible from below. A battery tester checks starting voltage and charging system health, and a tread depth gauge documents tire condition. Ask for the report to include raw readings and dated photos rather than a simple pass/fail summary - that is what makes it verifiable.
Under FOB terms, booking is a legal obligation of the buyer. If your freight forwarder fails to provide the shipping order (S/O) in time, resulting in vehicles exceeding the free storage period at our warehouse or port, the buyer will have to pay the high daily storage fees before shipment.
