Our Verdict
This 2017 MINI Clubman shows a mixed MOT
When inspecting this MINI Clubman, examine the rear bumper light clusters to ensure the position and stop lamps operate correctly, as these have previously caused an MOT failure. Pay close attention to the suspension system—specifically the rear coil springs, given the historical failure recorded in 2024—and check the front windscreen for the extent of the damage noted in the March 2026 test. Negotiate on price if replacement of the windscreen or further suspension checks are required.
Review the available service documentation to establish how regular maintenance has been carried out alongside the recorded MOT tests. Verify whether the tyres, brake pads, and headlamps—which are noted as top failure categories across the model range—have been recently inspected or replaced. Ensure all electrical functions inside the cabin and exterior lighting work as intended before finalising a purchase.
Fuel economy for the 1499.0cc petrol engine should align with standard expectations for a compact estate of this size, depending heavily on driving style and route profiles. Vehicle Excise Duty (road tax) will depend on the standard rates applicable to a 2017 petrol vehicle registered after the April 2017 tax changes. Insurance grouping will typically sit in a moderate bracket typical of petrol MINI models.
Maintenance costs should factor in regular servicing and potential wear-and-tear items such as brakes and suspension components. Given the mileage exceeds average thresholds, budgeting for unexpected repairs is prudent. Estimated annual running costs—incorporating fuel, tax, insurance, and typical maintenance—are estimated between £1,400 and £1,700.
Inspect the front windscreen thoroughly for any chips or cracks that might spread, noting the advisory recorded at the March 2026 test. Examine the rear coil springs and suspension mounting points for signs of corrosion or structural fatigue, referencing the 2024 failure for a fractured offside rear coil spring. Test all rear bumper-mounted lighting assemblies, including position lamps and stop lamps, to verify the repairs following the February 2025 failure.
Check the condition of all four tyres and brake components against the model's known common wear points. Look under the bonnet for any fluid leaks or hose degradation around the 1499.0cc petrol engine bay. Ensure all doors, including the distinctive split rear barn doors characteristic of the Clubman, operate smoothly and seal correctly.
First registered in June 2017, this green MINI Clubman with a 1499.0cc petrol engine has recorded 109,718 miles as of its March 2026 test. Its MOT history includes two failures—one in March 2024 for a fractured offside rear coil spring and another in February 2025 for non-working lower rear position and stop lamps—alongside a recent advisory for windscreen damage in 2026. While its mileage is above the national average for its age, it maintains a generally standard pass trajectory following rectifications.
MINI Clubman models achieve an aggregate MOT pass rate of 86.0%, with common failure items concentrated around tyres, brake pads, and headlamps.
