2018 MINI Cooper S 2.0L Petrol · EA68 ADZ

The 2018 MINI Cooper S presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 22 September 2025 at 26,747 miles recorded no defects, continuing an unbroken pass sequence since the first entry. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the full five-year MOT history, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work at any official test. Annual mileage has remained low throughout the record. The car covered 10,262 miles by 20 September 2021, then 14,763 by 27 September 2022, 18,357 by 27 September 2023, 21,279 by 16 September 2024, and 26,747 by September 2025. That equates to roughly 3,300 to 4,500 miles per year, well below typical use for an eight-year-old hatchback. The sparse, fault-free record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs, though standing periods implied by low use can age tyres, brake discs, and suspension bushes without visible MOT fault. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of components the MOT does not deeply probe. Check suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing from inactivity, and confirm brake discs are free of corrosion or lip wear after low-mileage storage. Examine underbody structural integrity for any incipient rust, particularly around subframes and sills. Verify the actual condition of tyres, wiper blades, and fluid intervals despite the clean test history. The absence of advisories means previous owners kept the car to test standard, but low annual use demands a hands-on check of rubber and braking parts before purchase.
