2013 MINI 2.0L Diesel · FL13 KUO

The vehicle currently presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 2026-04-02 at 42,804 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The April 2026 test sequence shows a fail on 2026-04-02 at 42,802 miles with no defects logged, immediately followed by a pass at 42,804 miles the same day, indicating an administrative or data-entry rejection rather than a mechanical fault. No advisories or defects appear on any test from 2023 through 2026. Mileage stands at 42,804 against a 2013 build, averaging roughly 3,293 miles per year. The record shows light and consistent use: 38,244 miles on 2023-11-20, 40,099 on 2024-06-28, 41,589 on 2025-04-09, and 42,804 on 2026-04-02. A gap of roughly seven months between the November 2023 and June 2024 tests accounts for only 1,855 miles, while the longest interval (June 2024 to April 2025) added 1,490 miles. The data is sparse but entirely clean, with no consumable wear or structural issues flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unbroken pass record. Low annual mileage and the 2023 to 2024 layup period raise the risk of perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and door seals, plus surface corrosion on brake discs from standing. The same-day fail with no recorded defect in April 2026 warrants confirmation that the V5C and DVSA entry reflect a clerical anomaly rather than a suppressed fault. Check underneath for structural rust at sills and subframe, test brake calipers for binding after the idle period, and verify tyre sidewall condition given the age of the rubber. The MINI's front strut top mounts and rear trailing arm bushes are known fatigue points that a static MOT may not expose without load.
