2007 MINI 1.4L Petrol · DU07 EKA

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, showing a stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection on 21 May 2025 at 106,360 miles resulted in no recorded defects, following consecutive clean passes in 2024 and 2022. This suggests that the current owner is proactive regarding basic safety standards and is addressing potential mechanical issues before they escalate into test failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a vehicle from 2007, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-intensity usage with only 2,910 miles recorded between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and 2,720 miles between 2023 and 2024. While this low mileage generally preserves the drivetrain and internal engine components, long periods of standing can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or corrosion in braking lines. The single recorded failure on 23 May 2023 at 100,730 miles involved a nearside front brake pad reaching the wear indicator and an illegible rear registration plate. While these were rectified immediately, a buyer should inspect the current state of the brake discs and pads for signs of pitting or uneven wear. Given the age of the MINI, a physical inspection must also focus on the structural integrity of the subframe and the condition of suspension bushes, as these are common points of failure on low-mileage vehicles of this era regardless of distance driven.
