Our Verdict

Recommended for buyers seeking a low-mil

When inspecting this vehicle, check the headlamps for any residue or clouding, as the 2025 MOT noted a product on the lenses. Ensure the windscreen washer system is fully operational following the failure recorded in August 2026.

Verify the service history to confirm regular oil changes for the 1499cc engine. Given the vehicle is now 12 years old, check the condition of the rubber seals and tyres, as these are common wear points for this model's age.

The 1.5L petrol engine provides a balance of efficiency and performance typical for the Cooper range. Insurance costs will depend on the driver's profile, but this model generally sits in a mid-range insurance group.

Annual expenditure will include standard VED tax for a 2014 petrol vehicle and routine maintenance. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, are approximately £1,300-£1,700.

Specifically test the windscreen washer fluid delivery to ensure the issue that caused the August 2026 failure has been fully resolved. Inspect the headlamp lenses to see if the 'product' mentioned in the 2025 MOT has been removed or if it is affecting light output.

Perform a general check of the interior and exterior trim, and examine the brakes and tyres for wear, considering the vehicle has now exceeded 84,000 miles.

This silver 2014 MINI Cooper has covered 84,122 miles. The MOT record shows a consistent testing history with four passes and one minor failure in August 2026 due to insufficient washer liquid. While mileage was steady between 2023 and 2025, there has been a notable increase in usage over the last 12 months.

Based on this specific vehicle's data, the car has demonstrated a consistent ability to pass MOT tests with minimal defects.
