2017 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · GC17 SZP

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted on 19 January 2026 at 40,559 miles resulted in no defects recorded, confirming a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. This consistency suggests that the vehicle has been well-maintained and that the mechanical and structural components are not currently failing under standard operating conditions. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. Between January 2022 at 28,234 miles and January 2026 at 40,559 miles, the car covered 12,325 miles, indicating light annual-use patterns. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and brake components, the long intervals between tests can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber-based parts such as bushes, seals, and tyres, which may perish from age if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or past failures, a physical inspection should focus on components susceptible to low-mileage neglect. A buyer should check for signs of dry-rot on tyre sidewalls and inspect the condition of the suspension bushes for cracking. Given the age of the vehicle, it is also prudent to examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs on cars that are not driven frequently enough to clear away rust from the friction surfaces.
