2017 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · FH17 YVJ

The 2017 MINI Cooper presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 July 2025 at 22,134 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of annual passes since 2021. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the DVLA MOT history, which indicates the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test scope across the recorded period. The mileage pattern shows exceptionally low use for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record charts 9,837 miles at the 7 July 2021 test, rising to 12,870 miles on 30 June 2022, 14,773 miles on 22 June 2023, 16,701 miles on 24 June 2024, and 22,134 miles on 4 July 2025. That equates to an average annual accumulation of roughly 2,459 miles. The progression is steady with no gaps exceeding thirteen months and no sudden jumps in mileage, suggesting consistent light private use rather than seasonal layup followed by heavy touring. Because the tester flagged no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion at any interval, the history gives no evidence of worsening wear or recurring faults. A clean sheet across five consecutive tests implies the previous owner kept basic upkeep current and avoided the neglect pattern seen on cars that fail repeatedly on tyre tread or emissions. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills and subframes for hidden rust, as MOT passes at low mileage do not certify absence of surface corrosion in enclosed sections. Verify the condition of consumables such as wiper blades and tyres that fall outside the test thresholds, and confirm service records match the low annual mileage to rule out odometer anomaly.
