2011 MINI (R60) 1.6L Diesel · DK11 AAZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 10 January 2026 at 128,008 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This streak of perfect records over the last five annual tests suggests that the previous owners have maintained the car to a standard that avoids the common mechanical failures typically seen in this model. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent with the vehicle's fifteen-year age, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. Between January 2022 at 96,920 miles and January 2026 at 128,008 miles, the car covered 31,088 miles, showing steady usage of roughly 7,700 to 9,000 miles per interval. This regular usage pattern is generally preferable to a vehicle left to sit for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seal-related mechanical seizing. Despite the clean MOT record, a thorough in-person inspection should focus on known wear points for the R60 chassis that an MOT test does not cover. The buyer should examine the front suspension for excessive play in the control arm bushes, as these often perish at this mileage regardless of test results. Additionally, checking for oil leaks around the valve cover gasket and the condition of the rear subframe is vital, as the MOT only identifies leaks that reach the ground or significant structural corrosion.
