2018 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · CL06 NEW

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition having passed its most recent inspection in August 2025 at 53,349 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable pattern of reactive attention to consumable items rather than escalating mechanical failure. While the most recent test noted a minor cut on the nearside rear tyre, it did not reach the structural ply cords, indicating that the vehicle is currently operating within legal safety standards despite minor advisories in previous years. At 53,349 miles over eight years, the car averages approximately 6,669 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-to-moderate usage patterns. The records show consistent annual testing, with intervals of roughly 7,000 to 9,000 miles between each test from 2021 to 2025. This steady progression suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme stress or long periods of stationary neglect, which generally preserves the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage counterparts of the same age. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the recurring issues identified regarding tyre quality and brake wear. The 2024 test at 47,502 miles flagged all four tyres for being near the legal limit and showing uneven wear or perishing, suggesting a history of delaying tyre replacements until the point of failure. Similarly, the 2021 record at 27,116 miles noted thin pads on both front and rear axles. You must verify the current depth of the brake pads and check for uneven wear on the current tyres to ensure the owner has followed up on maintenance since those previous advisories.
