2013 MINI 1.6L Diesel · FG13 ABU

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its last five consecutive MOT tests, including the most recent 2026-03-26 assessment at 88,708 miles. All prior tests from 2022 to 2025 showed similar pass results with no emerging issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no deterioration in mechanical or structural integrity. The absence of advisories or failures across this period suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained within standard usage parameters. The mileage progression aligns with typical annual usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging 6,824 miles per year. Tests were conducted approximately 12 months apart, with no significant gaps or rapid accumulation of miles that might indicate neglect or excessive wear. The 2022-04-05 test at 61,682 miles to the 2026-03-26 test at 88,708 miles reflects a steady increase, consistent with regular driving rather than sporadic use. The MOT record shows no irregularities in testing frequency or mileage trends that would raise concerns about maintenance consistency. While no specific faults are documented, a buyer should verify the condition of the rear suspension, as MINI models of this era are prone to wear in suspension bushes and coil springs over time. The braking system should also be inspected for caliper binding or uneven brake disc wear, common in vehicles with high mileage. Additionally, a thorough check of the underbody for corrosion is advisable, as structural rust can develop in older vehicles despite passing MOT tests. These components, though not flagged in the record, warrant physical inspection to confirm their continued serviceability.
