2019 MINI Countryman 2.0L Petrol · HS19 YPZ

The 2019 MINI Countryman presents a stable roadworthiness record in its most recent MOT tests, with the June 2026 inspection at 55,698 miles showing no defects—a clean outcome that aligns with the prior May 2025 and May 2024 tests, both of which also passed without issues. The only historical concern was a minor front inner brake disc fault in May 2023 at 33,016 miles, described as worn, pitted, or scored but not structurally compromised. This isolated incident suggests the vehicle has otherwise maintained consistent mechanical integrity, with no recurring advisories or failures in critical areas like suspension, steering, or structural corrosion. The absence of defects in the last three tests indicates the current owner—or a responsible party—has addressed any prior issues promptly, though the buyer should verify whether the 2023 brake disc was replaced or simply passed as a minor advisory. The mileage accumulation reflects typical usage for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging around 7,957 miles annually, which is neither excessively high nor suspiciously low. The gaps between tests are standard, with the most recent MOT just over a year ago (June 2026) and the previous one in May 2025, both at roughly 12-month intervals. There’s no evidence of rapid mileage spikes or prolonged inactivity, which could otherwise signal neglect or infrequent use. The only notable mileage jump occurs between the March 2022 test (23,692 miles) and the May 2023 test (33,016 miles), a span of roughly 14 months covering 9,324 miles—a pace consistent with regular driving rather than abuse. Given the history, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of the front brake system, particularly the discs and calipers, to confirm the 2023 advisory was fully resolved. The rear brakes should also be checked for binding or uneven wear, as the MOT records do not mention them, though the absence of faults does not guarantee they remain in optimal condition. Suspension components—such as coil springs, bushes, and ball joints—should be scrutinised for wear or leaks, especially if the vehicle has been driven on varied or rough roads. Structural integrity, including sills, wheel arches, and underbody corrosion, should be assessed for any signs of rust or damage, as the MOT records provide no indication of past or present issues in these areas. Tyre condition and tread depth should be verified, as these are consumables not covered by the MOT history provided.
