2017 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · CE67 LCV

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 13 May 2025 at 47,066 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend over the last four years suggests that the vehicle has been maintained well and avoids the mechanical or structural failures typically flagged during the annual inspection process. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old car, averaging approximately 5,230 miles per year. Between September 2022 at 36,105 miles and September 2024 at 45,653 miles, the vehicle covered 9,448 miles, indicating consistent but light usage. The interval of 1,413 miles since the last test reinforces this pattern of minimal use. Such low annual mileage generally implies less wear on drivetrain components and engine internals, though it can occasionally lead to rubber-based components drying out during long periods of inactivity. While the MOT records show no recorded faults, a buyer should still inspect specific areas prone to low-mileage age effects. Focus on checking for perished rubber in suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, as low mileage can mask cracking despite deep tread depth. Inspect the brake discs for signs of corrosion or pitting, as infrequently used brakes often develop surface rust. The structural integrity of the chassis appears sound based on the lack of corrosion advisories, but a physical visual check of the underbody remains necessary to ensure no hidden rust has developed.
