AI Market Summary

Battery degradation typical by now — expect 80–90% original capacity; confirm exact range in real-world driving before committing.
Fair pricing for market demand; i3s hold value reasonably well but higher-mileage examples (138k km median) command less than lower-mileage peers elsewhere.
12V aux battery failures common on 2017 models; insist on full diagnostic report and confirm vehicle starts reliably multiple times during viewing.
Request proof of charging port inspection and recent firmware updates — corrosion faults are expensive and can develop suddenly after purchase.
Verify NCT status and any outstanding recalls (3 on record); confirm servicing history with BMW dealer, not generic mechanic, for battery health assessment.

Important caveats

NI import estimates assume the car is NI-registered (not GB-origin). GB-origin cars add customs duty (6.5%) + import VAT (23%), potentially €3,000–€6,000 more.
Revenue may assess a different OMSP than the ROI median shown above.
NOx levy for diesel can vary from €600 to €3,500+ depending on the vehicle's individual emissions figure.
Cars 4+ years old require an NCT before ROI registration.
Always verify the V5C registration history and get a quote from Revenue.ie before purchasing.
