Our Verdict

This is a strong candidate for a buyer seeking a low-mileage MINI Countryman. The consistent MOT pass record without defects over the last five years suggests a vehicle that has met minimum regulatory standards consistently.

When inspecting this specific 2014 petrol model, focus on the service history to supplement the clean MOT record. While the MOTs show no defects, they do not confirm whether regular oil changes or scheduled manufacturer servicing have occurred. Check for a stamped service book or digital records to ensure the 1598cc engine has been maintained according to the MINI schedule.

Given the relatively low mileage, check for any signs of age-related wear on the interior materials and rubber seals. Because the MOT history is currently clear of advisories, use your inspection to look for common wear items that haven't failed yet, such as brake pad thickness or tyre tread depth, especially as these are top failure reasons for this model type.

Running costs for this 1.6L petrol Countryman will be influenced by its size as a compact SUV. You should expect moderate fuel economy typical of a petrol engine in this weight class. Tax and insurance groups will vary based on the specific trim level and driver profile, but the 1598cc engine sits in a mid-range category.

Maintenance costs should be budgetable for standard consumables. Based on aggregate model data, you should anticipate periodic costs for tyres, brake pads, and windscreen wipers, which are the most frequent failure points for this model across the wider dataset.

While this specific vehicle has had no recorded MOT failures or advisories since 2021, you should proactively inspect the tyres and brake pads. Aggregate data for the MINI Countryman indicates these are the most common reasons for MOT failures. Check for uneven tyre wear which could indicate suspension issues.

Additionally, inspect the windscreen wipers and the condition of the windscreen itself. Since these are noted as top failure reasons for this model, ensuring they are in good working order is a practical step. Finally, check the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks, as the MOT test is not a comprehensive mechanical health check.

Registered in October 2014, this red 1.6L petrol Countryman has covered 55,111 miles as of its last MOT in October 2025. This mileage is significantly lower than the model average of 6,797 miles per year, which would place an average 2014 vehicle at approximately 75,000 miles. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes with no recorded defects since 2021.

The MINI Countryman shows an 88.2% average MOT pass rate across 100,519 analysed vehicles, with common failures related to consumables like brakes and tyres.
