2017 MINI John Cooper Works 2.0L Petrol · FH67 MYK

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass on 9 January 2026 at 40,370 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, though the preceding attempt on 6 January 2026 at the same mileage failed with no defects logged, a pattern repeated at the start of 2025 when a failure on 2 January at 34,807 miles was followed by a pass on 3 January with no faults recorded. Such back-to-back fail-and-pass pairs with no stated defects suggest administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical deterioration. The odometer readings confirm very low use for a nine-year-old 2017 John Cooper Works, climbing from 32,252 miles at the 3 January 2024 test to 34,807 miles by 2 January 2025 and reaching 40,370 miles by January 2026. That equates to roughly 4,500 miles per year, with only about 5,500 miles added across the last two years. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or neglected intervals, though prolonged standing implied by low mileage can allow brake calipers to seize or tyres to develop flat spots unseen in the data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the braking system, suspension bushes, and underbody for corrosion given the car's age and likely periods off the road. The repeated no-defect failures warrant confirmation that the DVSA entries reflect genuine test outcomes and not clerical error. Verify the coil springs, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity in person before purchase, as the MOT file alone offers no advisory detail to assure long-term condition.
