Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for those seekin
Prioritise reviewing the full service history to ensure the 1499cc petrol engine has been serviced at regular intervals, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes have gaps in maintenance. Check if the tyre sidewall damage noted in the February 2023 MOT was addressed with replacements or if the tyres are still in use. Use the most recent advisories regarding worn brake discs as a point for negotiation, as these components will likely require replacement in the near future.
The 1.5L petrol engine in this Cooper S offers a balance of performance and efficiency, though insurance groups for the 'S' variant are typically higher than the standard Cooper. Road tax will be based on the vehicle's original CO2 emissions from 2017. Maintenance costs for MINIs are generally moderate, though parts can be more expensive than for budget hatchbacks.
Carefully inspect the brake discs and pads, as the September 2025 MOT specifically flagged wear on both the front and rear discs. Examine the tyre sidewalls, particularly on the nearside front, offside front, and offside rear, to see if the damage recorded in February 2023 has been rectified. Finally, check the alloy wheels for curbing, which often coincides with the type of tyre sidewall damage seen in this vehicle's history.
This black 2017 MINI Cooper S has covered 48,064 miles, which is notably low for its age. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes since 2022, including a clean record in 2024. Recent advisories regarding brake disc wear indicate that some routine maintenance is now due.
No aggregate data is available for this model, but this specific vehicle has a clean record of MOT passes.
