Our Verdict
Highly recommended for buyers seeking a
Due to the exceptionally low annual mileage, the primary focus should be on the service history. Ensure that oil and filter changes were carried out at regular intervals regardless of the distance travelled to prevent internal engine sludge. Check for evidence of regular battery maintenance, as vehicles with such low usage can suffer from battery degradation.
The 1.6L petrol engine provides a spirited drive but will have higher fuel consumption than modern downsized engines. Insurance groups for the Roadster are typically moderate, though the niche nature of the vehicle can sometimes influence premiums. Maintenance costs are generally standard for the MINI range, though parts for the Roadster's specific body style can occasionally be more costly.
While the MOT history is clear of defects, you should manually check the operation of the convertible roof mechanism to ensure it functions smoothly. Inspect all rubber seals and tyres for signs of age-related perishing or cracking, which is common in vehicles that spend long periods stationary. Reference the broader model data and check for the common failures seen in other Roadsters, such as inoperative engine management lights or shock absorber wear, even though they are not present in this car's records.
This red 2013 MINI Roadster Cooper is a rare find, with a recorded mileage of just 10,332 miles. It has successfully passed its last five MOT tests (from 2022 to 2026) without a single defect or advisory being noted. This makes it one of the lowest-mileage examples of the 1598cc petrol model available.
The MINI Roadster Cooper is generally reliable, with aggregate data showing a strong MOT pass rate of 91.8%.
