Our Verdict
Proceed with caution but consider this a
When inspecting this MINI, pay close attention to the suspension components. The January 2026 MOT noted a worn nearside front suspension arm pin or bush; ensure this has been professionally addressed and isn't causing any knocks or rattles during a test drive.
Check the condition of all four tyres thoroughly. The December 2024 MOT highlighted perishing on the outer sidewalls of both front tyres, which can be a sign of age or long periods of inactivity. Additionally, confirm that the braking system is smooth, as the January 2024 record noted a binding offside rear service brake.
As a 1.6L petrol model, running costs are typical for a small hatchback. You should expect moderate fuel economy suited for urban and suburban driving.
Maintenance costs for this era of MINI can vary, but you should budget for regular attention to suspension and braking components, which have appeared in this vehicle's recent history. The tax band and insurance group will depend on the specific trim level, but generally, this engine size sits in a mid-range bracket for small cars.
Focus your inspection on the front suspension assembly, specifically looking for any signs of play in the bushes or arms, following the advisory from early 2026. It is also worth checking the brake calipers and discs to ensure the binding issue noted in 2024 has been resolved and that the brakes operate freely.
Examine the tyres for any signs of cracking or perishing on the sidewalls, as this was a recorded issue in late 2024. Finally, check the overall tyre tread depth, as tyres are a common failure reason for this model type across the wider dataset.
This 2011 red MINI 1.6 petrol shows a consistent MOT history with five recorded tests. The mileage has risen from 82,407 in 2022 to 89,364 in 2026, indicating regular use. While recent results are positive, past advisories regarding suspension bushes, tyre perishing, and binding brakes suggest a pattern of standard wear-and-tear maintenance.
Based on aggregate data from over 326,000 vehicles, this model shows a 75.6% average MOT pass rate, with common failures relating to headlamps, tyres, and brake pipes.
