AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2009 MINI presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 110,021 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests also passed clean. No advisories or failures appear across the available record, which indicates the vehicle has not required corrective work within the tested scope over the last four years. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 17-year-old car. The record shows 93,689 miles at the 9 March 2022 test, rising to 102,336 by 3 March 2023, then 107,690 on 27 March 2024, and 110,021 on 7 October 2025. That equates to roughly 6,500 miles per year with no abrupt accumulation or unexplained gaps. The clean sheet across all four entries suggests previous keepers kept the car to a standard that satisfied the annual inspection without flagged wear items. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as the MOT only captures faults at the test date and does not measure gradual degradation between tests. Structural integrity around sills and subframes should be checked for corrosion, a known concern on older MINIs that may not yet breach test thresholds. The absence of recurring advisories means no worsening mechanical pattern is evident. Treat the clean history as evidence of consistent basic upkeep rather than a guarantee of component life, and verify tyre condition, exhaust emissions, and binding calipers during a pre-purchase check.
