2020 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · AF70 LCG

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on September 3, 2025 at 23,648 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for an ineffective windscreen wiper. This indicates that the owner addressed a minor consumable issue immediately, suggesting a level of attentive care regarding basic equipment. No recurring mechanical or structural defects have been recorded across the last three years of testing history. The mileage profile is notably low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,941 miles per year. Between the September 2023 test at 13,829 miles and the August 2024 test at 18,847 miles, the car covered roughly 5,000 miles. This consistent low-frequency usage suggests light operation which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. However, such low-mileage patterns can sometimes lead to flat-spotting or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on rubber-based components that age over time regardless of mileage, such as suspension bushes, tyre sidew, and coolant hoses. While the MOT record shows no issues with brake calipers or structural integrity, the low mileage warrants a check of the brake discs for surface pitting or rust from disuse. Given the failure for windscreen wipers in 2025, verify the wiper motor and arm blades are free of play or cracking to ensure visibility remains optimal.
