Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus your attention on the service history to ensure the 1499cc petrol engine has been serviced at regular intervals. Given the MOT advisories in 2023 and 2025 regarding tyre cracking and perishing, you should verify the age and brand of the current tyres to ensure they are not aged, even if they have sufficient tread.
Negotiate the price if there is no evidence of a recent major service or if the tyre condition is marginal. Ensure you check for a complete history of oil changes, as this is the most critical factor for the longevity of this specific engine variant.
The 1.5L petrol engine provides a balance of urban efficiency and motorway capability. Annual costs will be influenced by the vehicle's insurance group and the current UK petrol prices, though the relatively low mileage of this specific car may help keep fuel expenditure down.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically standard, though aggregate data suggests that brake pads and washer jets are frequent replacement items. Estimated annual costs including tax, insurance, fuel, and routine maintenance are likely to be moderate.
Carefully inspect all four tyres for signs of sidewall cracking or perishing, as this was a recurring theme in the 2023 and 2025 MOT tests. Ensure the tyres currently fitted are of a reputable brand and have been replaced since the 2025 advisory.
Additionally, test the windscreen washer jets and inspect the brake pad thickness, as these are highlighted as top failure reasons across the wider MINI Cooper population. A visual check of the orange paintwork for any fading or clear-coat failure is also recommended for a car of this age.
This orange 2014 MINI Cooper has a clean record of five consecutive MOT passes with no failures recorded. With 63,056 miles on the odometer, its usage is below the model average. While there have been tyre-related advisories in previous years, the most recent test in May 2026 was completed with no defects.
The MINI Cooper maintains a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 87.7% across the analysed fleet.
