2013 MINI JOHN COOPER WORKS1.6L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 27 March 2026 at 72,595 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently achieved passes following immediate re-tests. The history shows a pattern where failures in March 2024 and 2026 were rectified within 24 hours, indicating that the previous owner was proactive in addressing MOT-related defects rather than allowing mechanical or safety issues to persist. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 72,595 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 5,584 miles. This low usage suggests the vehicle has seen limited exposure, which typically puts less strain on the drivetrain and engine components. However, the gap between the 2025 test at 66,997 miles and the 2026 test at 72,595 miles shows a consistent accumulation of roughly 5,600 miles per year, aligning with the historical low-ageprofile. Despite the clean result of the final passes, the recurring failures on the first day of testing in both 2024 and 2026 warrant a close in-person inspection. Since the record does not detail the specific reasons for those initial failures, a buyer must check for common MINI-specific wear points such as lightbulb failures, tyre tread depth, or minor fluid leaks. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, the inspector should specifically evaluate rubber components and suspension bushes for cracking or perish, as these can degrade over time even when the car is driven infrequently.
