2010 MINI (R57) 1.6L Petrol · JP10 MEP

This vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 15 May 2026 with no defects recorded. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, showing a stable and positive trend. Over the last five years of testing, there have been no recorded defects or advisories, which is rare for a vehicle of this age. The recorded mileage of 27,993 miles is very low for a 16-year-old car, averaging roughly 1,750 miles per year. While this indicates the car has avoided the heavy wear associated with high-mileage use, such low usage often suggests the vehicle has spent long periods standing. Low-mileage vehicles can suffer from different risks than high-mileage ones, such as perishing rubber components, seized brake calipers, or degraded fluids due to under-use. However, the lack of MOT defects suggests these issues have not yet manifested in a way that affects roadworthiness. When inspecting the car in person, you should first check the condition of the tyres for age-related cracking and verify that the brakes are operating smoothly. You should also check the service history to ensure oil and other fluids were changed regularly despite the low annual mileage.
