Our Verdict

Recommended for buyers seeking a low-mil

The primary focus for a buyer should be the condition and age of the tyres. The MOT history reveals a three-year trend of tyre degradation, with failures in 2025 and 2026 specifically citing tears and perishing. Ensure the current tyres are not just the minimum legal requirement but are of a reputable brand and recent date of manufacture.

Beyond the tyres, request the full service history to confirm that oil and filter changes have been performed regularly. Low-mileage vehicles can still experience oil degradation if they are used for short city trips, which is common for this 1198cc engine variant.

The 1.2-litre petrol engine is designed for urban efficiency, offering competitive fuel economy and a relatively low insurance group. Road tax will fall into a standard band for 2017 petrol vehicles, keeping fixed annual costs manageable.

Maintenance costs for the MINI ONE are generally moderate, though owners should budget for the replacement of consumables. Given the model's aggregate data, keep a reserve for potential ball joint or headlamp replacements, which are common failure points for this range.

Carefully inspect all four tyres for any signs of side-wall cracking or uneven wear. The MOT history specifically notes 'perishing' in 2025 and 'tears caused by separation' in 2026, suggesting a history of neglected tyre replacement.

Additionally, check the headlamps for clarity and function, and have a mechanic inspect the ball joints. These are highlighted as top failure reasons across the 53,423 vehicles analysed for this model and should be verified regardless of the current MOT status.

This black 2017 MINI ONE has recorded 35,299 miles, which is significantly below the model average of 5,810 miles per year. The MOT history is characterised by repeated tyre-related failures and advisories between 2024 and 2026, including issues with perishing and structural tears. However, the most recent test in April 2026 was passed with no defects recorded.

This model has an average MOT pass rate of 85.2%, with tyres, ball joints, and headlamps being the most frequent causes of failure.
