2002 MINI 1.6L Petrol · MX02 AON

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 8 April 2023 at 124,003 miles recorded as a pass and no defects noted. The absence of failures across the two available tests indicates a stable maintenance pattern, showing no deterioration in the inspected systems. Mileage has risen modestly from 122,335 miles on 8 December 2021 to 124,003 miles on the 2023 test, an increase of 1,668 miles over roughly 16 months – about 1,250 miles per year. For a 2002 model this equates to a very low annual distance, suggesting limited use rather than high‑stress operation. No large mileage jumps or unexplained gaps appear in the record. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of consumable wear items that the MOT does not cover in detail. Inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity, confirm brake pads and discs are within safe limits, and feel for any play in the suspension bushes or coil springs. Examine the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks, and give particular attention to any surface rust on the chassis or body panels that could indicate hidden structural concerns. A visual check of the steering rack, wheel bearings, and under‑carriage for signs of fluid leaks or abnormal wear will complement the clean MOT history and provide confidence in the vehicle’s ongoing reliability.
