2020 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · YM70 AFF

This vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 3 December 2025 at 26,070 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to November 2023, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that meets all legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a six-year-old car, averaging roughly 4,345 miles per year. Between the November 2023 test at 17,295 miles and the December 2025 test at 26,070 miles, the car covered 8,775 miles over two years. This low usage suggests the vehicle has not been subject to heavy wear and tear on the drivetrain or suspension. The failure recorded on 28 November 2024 was resolved on the same day at 21,348 miles, though the lack of listed defects suggests a minor administrative or easily rectified issue rather than a mechanical fault. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from binding brake calipers or perished tyre rubber due to long periods of standing. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking. Verify the condition of the battery and fluid levels, as infrequent short trips can lead to premature battery failure and moisture buildup in the engine oil. While the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or suspension bush wear, a manual check of the underbody remains prudent to ensure no environmental damage has occurred during its periods of inactivity.
