MINI F572018 · 2.0L PETROL

The most recent MOT from March 2026 shows a pass, but it has flagged several issues regarding the braking system. Both the front and rear brake pads are reported as wearing thin, and the front brake discs are noted as being worn, pitted, or scored. The vehicle's condition trend appears to be worsening. From 2022 through 2025, the car maintained a clean record with no defects reported. The sudden appearance of multiple brake-related issues in the latest inspection suggests that the car is moving into a phase where mechanical maintenance is required. With only 24,152 miles recorded over approximately eight years, the mileage is very low for its age. While this typically implies less wear on the drivetrain, the pitting and scoring on the brake discs can be a symptom of a vehicle that has experienced long periods of standing or very infrequent use, allowing surface corrosion to develop on the metal components. A buyer should first inspect the condition of the brakes and discs in person to assess the cost of the necessary repairs. You should also look for other signs of a vehicle that has been used sparingly, such as the condition of the tyres.
