MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Mini Mini (AR51 AXC) between March 2006 and April 2023.

The record contains 18 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 22 April 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (18 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 28 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Front Windscreen washer not working (3.5 (a))”; “Nearside Rear Fuel tank insecure (6.1.3 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (1.1.11 (c))”.
