Mechanical Assessment

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

The vehicle maintains a valid roadworthiness status following its most recent test on September 9, 2025. The maintenance trend shows a shift from occasional mechanical failures to recurring consumable wear-related advisories. While the car passed the 2025 inspection, the presence of advisories regarding tyre degradation and undertray damage indicates a transition toward requiring more immediate preventative maintenance attention compared to the clean record seen in September 2022. At 73,703 miles, the Paceman has averaged approximately 6,700 miles per year over its 11-year life. This mileage is consistent with typical low usage for a vehicle of this age, suggesting that wear on the drivetrain and suspension components is moderate. The record shows a consistent annual testing interval between 2022 and 2025, indicating the vehicle has been monitored regularly, though the specific mileage increments between tests are not detailed beyond the initial recorded failure for a windscreen obstruction. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the rear tyres, as the 2025 test flagged both cracking/perishing in the tread and a nail embedded in the offside rear. These indicators suggest the rubber is reaching the end of its structural life regardless of remaining depth. The buyer should also examine the nearside and general undertrays mentioned in the September 2024 and 2025 records to ensure that the reported damage has not led to accelerated corrosion or exposure of critical chassis components and lines. Buying score: 68 Risk level: Low.

Our Verdict

A sensible and used MINI Paceman with a consistent MOT record and relatively low mileage. It is a safe bet for those looking for a unique crossover without recent mechanical failures.

When inspecting this Paceman, focus on the service history to ensure the 1.6cc engine has been maintained according to manufacturer intervals, as the MOT record only reflects safety and emissions checks. Since the most recent MOT had no recorded defects, check for any minor advisories that might have been noted in previous years to indicate upcoming wear items.

Ask for a full service history to verify that oil changes have been performed regularly, as this is vital for this engine type. Given the age, also check the condition of the tyres and suspension components, which can wear faster on vehicles in this weight bracket.

The 1.6-litre petrol engine typically falls into a moderate insurance group and should offer around 35-45 MPG depending on driving style. Tax will vary based on the specific CO2 emissions recorded for this Paceman model.

Maintenance costs for MINIs are generally higher than for standard hatchbacks due to premium parts and labour. You should budget for an annual cost that covers fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing.

The MOT history shows one failure in September 2023 at 64,757 miles, but as the specific reason was not detailed in the provided summary, you should visually inspect the brakes, suspension bushings, and tyres to ensure no recurring issues have developed since then.

Check the interior for any signs of oil leaks, which is a common point of interest for engines of this era. Ensure the gearbox shifts smoothly through all gears, as the Paceman's weight puts significant strain on the drivetrain.

This 2015 MINI Paceman sits at approximately 73,700 miles, which is consistent with its age. The vehicle shows a very clean record in its recent history, with the last three MOT tests passing with no defects recorded following a single failure back in September 2023. The 1.6L petrol engine offers a balance of performance and practicality for a larger-than-average MINI body style.

No aggregate data is available for the MINI Paceman, but the 1.6L petrol engine requires consistent documented maintenance.
