Our Verdict
A recommended purchase for buyers seekin
Verify the service history for the 1998cc engine, as the MOT record only confirms roadworthiness and not mechanical maintenance. Check that the suspension arm bush replacement from January 2025 was documented with a receipt. Given the performance nature of the JCW, ensure that premium tyres have been fitted, particularly following the advisories for worn front tyres in early 2026.
As a high-performance petrol model, this vehicle will incur higher fuel and insurance costs than a standard MINI. Maintenance costs are typically higher for the JCW variant due to the requirement for high-performance tyres and brakes.
Annual costs will be driven by the 2.0L engine's fuel consumption and the insurance group associated with the John Cooper Works trim.
Carefully inspect the front suspension and steering assembly, specifically the lower suspension arm bushes, as this was a point of failure in 2025. Check the current tread depth and wear patterns of the front tyres, which were flagged as being close to the legal limit in January 2026.
Additionally, check the condition of the road wheels and headlamps, as these are identified as top failure reasons across the aggregate data for this model.
This 2018 Green MINI John Cooper Works has recorded 46,624 miles, which is below the model average. Its MOT history shows a consistent record with four passes and one failure in January 2025. The vehicle's recent test in May 2026 was passed with no defects recorded.
This model demonstrates a solid reliability profile with an average MOT pass rate of 89% across 23,540 analysed vehicles.
