Our Verdict
A solid purchase option for those seekin
When inspecting this specific 1.5L petrol MINI, your primary focus should be on the tyres. The most recent MOT in July 2026 flagged a rear tyre with damage or perishing, so ensure this has been replaced with a quality brand before completing a purchase.
Given that this vehicle has covered much more mileage than the aggregate average for this model, you should request a detailed service history to see how the 1499cc engine has been maintained. Check for any evidence of oil leaks or cooling system issues, which are common areas of interest for high-mileage petrol MINIs, even though they haven't appeared as MOT failures here.
As a 1.5L petrol model, this Cooper sits in a relatively manageable insurance group and tax band for its class. Fuel economy should be typical for a modern small-displacement turbocharged engine, though higher mileage may slightly impact efficiency if maintenance is deferred.
Annual running costs are estimated to be moderate. While the MOT history hasn't shown frequent brake or washer jet issues—which are common for this model aggregate—you should budget for standard consumables like tyres and brake pads, which are identified as top failure reasons in the wider MINI data set.
Start by inspecting the tyres across the entire vehicle. The July 2026 MOT specifically noted a rear tyre that was slightly damaged, cracking, or perishing; verify that all four tyres have adequate tread depth and show no signs of age-related perishing.
Secondly, check all exterior lighting. The vehicle failed an MOT in July 2024 due to a non-working offside front position lamp, so ensure all bulbs and LED elements are functioning correctly. Finally, because the model aggregate data highlights windscreen washer jets and brake pads as common failure points, test the washer system thoroughly and check the thickness of the brake pads during your inspection.
This 2018 grey MINI Cooper has covered 56,787 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average of 6,214 miles per year. The MOT history shows a consistent passing record, with only one minor failure for a bulb in 2024 and a recent advisory regarding a damaged rear tyre in July 2026. While the mileage is high for its age, the lack of recurring structural or mechanical failures in the MOT data is notable.
The MINI Cooper aggregate data shows an 87.7% MOT pass rate, with common issues typically involving tyres, washer jets, and brake pads.
