2011 MINI Countryman Cooper D 1.6L Diesel · A20 SAR

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 17 March 2026 at 182,731 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without recorded advisories or failures over the last three years. The car has covered 182,731 miles over 15 years, averaging roughly 12,182 miles annually. This is high usage for a MINI Countryman, though the mileage accumulation remains steady. Between 20 March 2024 and 17 March 2026, the vehicle covered 11,242 miles, indicating it remains in regular active use rather than sitting idle. The absence of recorded defects or advisories across the 2024, 2025, and 2026 tests is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. Typically, a car with 182,000 miles would show wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs. The lack of documented issues suggests either a very rigorous preventative maintenance regime by the previous owner or a lenient testing history. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear components that often escape MOT mentions until they become critical. Prioritise checking for oil leaks around the engine seals and inspecting the condition of the timing chain and water pump given the high mileage. Check the underside for structural corrosion and verify the depth of the tyre treads and the thickness of the brake pads to ensure basic consumables are not overdue for replacement.
