2018 MINI Countryman 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · EF18 VGU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by the clean result in its most recent inspection. The MOT test conducted on 4 July 2025 at 67,117 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that all mechanical and safety components met the required standard. This follows a successful pass in July 2024, suggesting that the previous owner was proactive in addressing any issues that may have arisen between tests. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per annum. There is a period of activity between August 2023 and July 2024, where the car covered over 18,000 miles in just eleven months. However, the subsequent interval between July 2024 and July 2025 saw a more moderate accumulation of 17,743 miles. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme long-distance stress, which generally preserves the integrity of the drivetrain and suspension components. While the recent history is clean, the failure recorded during the test on 27 July 2024 at 49,374 miles warrants a closer look at what was repaired at that time. Since the record does not specify the exact defect for that failure, a buyer should verify if the issue involved a minor consumable item or a more significant mechanical component. Given the age and mileage of this Countryman, a physical inspection should specifically focus on the condition of the suspension bushes and checking for any corrosion on the brake lines, as these are common areas of wear on this model as they approach the seventy-thousand-mile mark.
