2014 MINI Countryman 1.6L Petrol · BV64 ACO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 24 April 2026 at 72,543 miles. The overall maintenance trend is stable, although the record shows a recent shift toward recurring tyre issues. The latest test flagged both nearside and offside rear inner tyres as worn close to the legal limit with feathering on the inner edges. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 6,045 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last decade, with a notable increase between May 2023 at 43,298 miles and May 2025 at 62,226 miles. This period saw the car cover nearly 20,000 miles, which is a higher annual rate than the earlier years of its life. A buyer should prioritise a professional alignment check and a detailed inspection of the rear suspension geometry. The 2026 test noted inner edge feathering, and the 2020 test at 27,213 miles also flagged a worn nearside rear tyre. This recurring pattern suggests a potential misalignment or worn suspension bushes that are causing uneven tyre wear. The 2025 test at 62,226 miles noted cracking and perishing on both rear tyres, which often indicates a vehicle has sat idle for periods or that the rubber has aged beyond its useful life. While the MOT history is remarkably clean regarding structural corrosion, brakes, and exhaust emissions, the repeated tyre advisories point to a lack of proactive attention to the chassis setup.
