2012 MINI 1.6L Petrol · 250 CK

The 2012 MINI presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 24 October 2025 at 91,425 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Three consecutive annual passes from November 2022 through October 2025 show no advisories or mechanical faults raised by testers. The vehicle's history reflects consistent statutory testing without escalating concerns. Recorded mileage rose from 81,312 at the 8 November 2022 test to 91,425 by October 2025, an accumulation of 10,113 miles over three years. This equates to roughly 3,370 miles per year against a 14-year life average of 6,530, indicating light recent use. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or neglected intervals; the only anomaly is a failed entry on 16 November 2023 at 85,268 miles carrying no listed defects, immediately followed the same day by a pass at identical mileage, suggesting an administrative retest rather than a genuine fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and low annual mileage, which can permit corrosion and perished rubbers to develop during standing periods. The absence of advisories across the record means no structural rust or binding calipers were flagged by DVLA testers. Verify underbody condition and exhaust emissions in person, as the MOT data alone offers no insight beyond the clean test outcomes.
