2018 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · GY18 KFU

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT test in September 2025 at 30,255 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable with no major mechanical failures or structural defects recorded over the five-year period. However, the record reveals a recurring issue with tyre degradation, suggesting that while the car is mechanically sound, it is suffering from age-related wear rather than mileage mileage. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,782 miles per year. Between the September 2021 test at 5,402 miles and the September 2025 test at 30,255 miles, the car covered 24,853 miles. This low usage frequency typically means less strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, but it often correlates with the perishation of rubber-based parts which remain stationary for long periods. A buyer inspecting this vehicle should focus their in-person inspection on the physical condition of the tyres, as the tester flagged cracking and perishing on all four tyres in 2022, the front pair in 2023, and the nearside rear in 2025. These consistent advisories indicate the rubber is reaching the end of its life due to age despite sufficient tread depth. Additionally, check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to seized calipers and rusted rotors when not driven frequently enough to clear the material.
