2012 MINI (R60) 1.6L Petrol · CP62 YAE

The 2012 MINI Countryman (R60) presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 December 2025 at 66,441 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results across the available history. Mileage stands at 66,441 against a December 2025 test, equating to roughly 4,746 miles per year from new. The record shows gentle, consistent use: 57,802 miles in December 2022, 61,144 in December 2023, 63,954 in December 2024, and 66,441 in December 2025. Annual accumulation sits near 3,000 to 3,500 miles. The DVSA entry lists a fail and a pass on the same date, 12 December 2022 at 57,802 miles, yet records no defects for either. This points to an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical fault. The sparse, clean history gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean sheet. Low annual mileage and the same-day 2022 anomaly mean the car may have stood idle for stretches. Check suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe mounts for perishing from static corrosion. Inspect brake discs and calipers for pitting after prolonged storage. Verify underbody structural integrity and exhaust emissions against the R60's known rear subframe rust propensity. Given the fault-free record and modest use, the vehicle shows signs of careful ownership. Confirm service history and date-coded tyres before purchase, as the MOT reveals nothing about consumable age.
