2012 MINI 1.6L Petrol · WR62 AEP

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent record of passing its MOT tests. The most recent inspection on 31 July 2025 at 54,991 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the car is currently in a mechanically sound condition according to DVSA standards. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2012 model, averaging under 4,000 miles per year. Between 40,389 miles in July 2022 and 54,991 miles in July 2025, the car covered roughly 14,600 miles over three years. A notable jump occurred between August 2024 and July 2025, where the vehicle added nearly 9,500 miles, suggesting a recent increase in usage after a period of lighter activity. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no recorded defects or advisories across five years of testing. While the failure on 3 August 2024 was resolved within three days, the record provides no specific technical data on what caused that failure. This lack of documented wear on consumables like brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes is rare for a fourteen year old vehicle. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished rubber seals, degraded tyre compounds, and potential brake caliper seizing due to inactivity. Check for signs of corrosion on the underside and verify that the battery and fluids have been maintained despite the low annual mileage.
