2014 MINI Paceman 1.6L Petrol · 6 PV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a successful MOT test in April 2026 at 33,511 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has passed its last five inspections without any failures. The only significant issue recorded occurred in February 2025, where all four tyres were flagged for splitting on the outer edges, but the record indicates the nearside and offside front and rear tyres were subsequently addressed. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,800 miles per year. The data shows a notable gap in usage between January 2021 and December 2022, where the car covered only 2,000 miles in nearly twenty months. Since 2024, the usage has remained consistent, adding roughly 1,000 miles annually. While low mileage suggests less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, it increases risks of age-related degradation in components that do not move. A buyer should inspect the physical condition of rubber components in person, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from dry rot in suspension bushes, seals, and brake lines. The previous tyre failures noted in 2025 suggest the vehicle may have sat stationary for long periods, which can cause sidewall cracking regardless of tread depth. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use often prevents the pads from cleaning the metal effectively, potentially leading to binding or uneven braking performance.
