2011 MINI Cooper 1.6L Petrol · LY51 ASA

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 9 January 2026 at 119,219 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any noted mechanical failures or deteriorating components over the last three years. The mileage is typical for a 15 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,948 miles per year. The distance covered between 6 February 2024 and 31 January 2025 was 5,537 miles, while the subsequent interval to January 2026 saw a slight increase to 2,026 miles. These figures indicate steady, moderate usage rather than periods of prolonged standing or excessive wear. The MOT record is unusually clean for a Mini of this age, showing no recorded advisories for common failure points such as suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion. While the record shows failures on 5 February 2024 and 30 January 2025, the lack of listed defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified immediately on the same day. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the underbody for structural corrosion, as the MOT history provides no data on the chassis condition. While the records show no recurring faults, the high overall mileage means the drivetrain and clutch should be checked for wear. Focus on the condition of the tyres and brake pads, as these consumables are not detailed in the clean pass certificates.
