2004 MINI 1.6L Petrol · AV54 HJY

The vehicle shows a stable maintenance trend based on the available MOT data, with the most recent test on 17 April 2024 resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. This follows a clean pass in the 22 March 2022 test. No failures or advisories appear in the documented history, suggesting that the components tested during these specific intervals met the required standards. The recorded mileage of 104,398 miles indicates an average annual usage of approximately 4,745 miles over the vehicle's 22-year lifespan. This represents low-intensity usage compared to typical UK driving patterns. There is a two-year gap between the recorded tests in March 2022 and April 2024, which limits the ability to track incremental wear on consumables such as tyres or brake pads during that period. A physical inspection should focus on components that often suffer during periods of low usage or extended stationary intervals. A buyer should check for signs of corrosion on the underside, particularly around suspension mounting points and exhaust sections, as well as the condition of rubber seals and hoses. Given the low annual mileage, inspecting the braking system for seized calipers or pitted discs is advisable, alongside checking the battery health and tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking.
