MINI COOPER2022 · 1.5L PETROL

The 2022 MINI Cooper presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 January 2026 at 33,386 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, confirming the vehicle entered the current year in sound mechanical condition. Prior to that, the 14 January 2025 examination at 25,569 miles also passed, with only an advisory that items were removed from the driver's view before testing, a minor housekeeping note rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits at a modest 8,346 miles against the car's four-year age, with the record showing 25,569 miles in January 2025 rising to 33,386 miles by January 2026. This 7,817-mile accumulation over twelve months is consistent with typical private use and reflects no abrupt high-use periods or unexplained gaps. The DVSA history is sparse and clean, offering no recorded failures, advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across either test. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the front suspension struts, rear coil springs, and brake calipers, as low-mileage cars left standing can develop perishing rubber components and slight binding without triggering MOT flags. The driver's-view item removed in 2025 suggests air fresheners or dash cameras were cleared before the test; verify nothing obscured the windscreen in regular use. Given two consecutive passes and no structural or mechanical advisories, the previous owner appears to have maintained the vehicle to statutory standard. The clean record implies basic upkeep was not skipped, though the limited test history means in-person checks of tyre sidewalls, underbody corrosion, and drivetrain noise remain prudent before purchase.
