2014 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · DA14 NJZ

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on August 2025 at 106,670 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements before they could result in test failures, maintaining a pristine record throughout its lifecycle. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,900 miles per year. Between the October 2021 test at 79,111 miles and the August 2025 test at 106,670 miles, the car covered 27,559 miles, reflecting a steady rate of use. There are no signs of long periods of stagnation which often lead to dry rot or seized components, nor are there sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest accelerated wear on the drivetrain or suspension components. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a buyer should focus on common MINI-related wear points that do not always trigger during annual testing. Physical inspection must verify the front suspension bushes and control arms for tearing, as these often degrade at this mileage bracket. The buyer should also check for oil leaks around the timing cover and inspect the condition of the brake lines, given that the MOT history only confirms the vehicle was functional at the moment of the test rather than certifying the current state of all rubber components.
