2015 MINI John Cooper Works 2.0L Petrol · DG15 ORS

The 2025-11-01 test at 66,970 miles passed without adverse effects, establishing a baseline for the vehicle's current condition. While the 2024-11-02 test showed a deterioration in rear registration plate, the 2023-10-26 test confirmed this issue persists with a cut in the offside front tyre, indicating a stable trend of worn components rather than a sudden failure. The 2022-11-02 test revealed that the offside rear tyre is worn close to the legal limit, which is a critical structural risk requiring inspection. The mileage pattern suggests that the vehicle has experienced rapid accumulation of wear, particularly on the rear tyre, which may indicate that basic upkeep was skipped during the ownership period. Given the age of the car and the consistent deterioration of critical components like the rear tyre and registration plate, the vehicle presents a serious structural risk that must be addressed before any purchase. A buyer should inspect the car in person to verify the condition of the rear tyre, registration plate, and offside front tyre, as well as the suspension bushes and coil springs. The 2025-11-01 test flagged a low effort on the nearside rear handbrake, which may indicate binding calipers or binding rear brakes that require immediate attention. If the tyre condition is compromised, the vehicle should be taken to a garage for a full inspection to rule out hidden structural issues before finalizing the purchase.
