MINI COOPER S2016 · 2.0L Diesel

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 September 2025 at 19,249 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, indicating a car that has been kept in a high state of mechanical readiness. The mileage is remarkably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 1,925 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, with 1,744 miles added between September 2023 and September 2024, and 1,744 miles added again by September 2025. This consistency suggests regular, light use rather than erratic periods of standing. The record shows a single failure on 26 September 2022 at 13,450 miles, though the tester recorded no specific defects, implying a rapid rectification of a minor issue or a clerical error before the immediate pass on the same day. There are no recurring mentions of suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues across the entire history. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perishing rubber seals, tyre sidewall cracking, and potential brake caliper binding due to inactivity. While the MOT record is flawless, checking for fluid leaks and verifying the age of the tyres will confirm if the low mileage has been matched by proactive preventative maintenance.
