2017 MINI Countryman 2.0L Petrol · 18 HOD

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following the August 2025 test at 37,988 miles, where the tester passed it with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged across the full history. A failed entry on the same date shows no recorded defects, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical concern. Prior tests in July and August 2024 also closed with passes and zero defects after an initial defect-free failure, confirming a clean and consistent record. Recorded mileage sits at 37,988 miles for a nine-year-old 2017 Countryman, averaging roughly 4,221 miles per year. The car covered only 6,985 miles between the July 2024 test at 30,867 miles and the August 2025 pass at 37,988 miles. Low annual use suggests extended standing periods, which can accelerate rubber perishing in suspension bushes and cause brake caliper binding or surface corrosion on discs. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of skipped consumable upkeep or recurring wear items. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension components, brake calipers, and underbody structural integrity given the low-mileage standing pattern. Check coil springs and bushes for cracking from inactivity, and confirm brake discs are free of pitting. The DVSA data shows no flagged exhaust emissions or structural rust, but physical verification remains prudent on a light-use vehicle of this age.
