Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When viewing this MINI, your primary focus should be on the tyres and suspension. The MOT history shows a repetitive trend of tyres being worn close to the legal limit or having cuts, most recently in February 2026. Check the current tread depth on all four tyres and look for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment or suspension issues.
Negotiate on the basis of the high mileage and the need for potential immediate tyre replacement. Ask the seller for evidence of recent servicing, as the MOT records only show compliance with safety standards and do not confirm mechanical maintenance. Given the 1.5L petrol engine, ensure the service history includes regular oil changes to maintain engine health.
As a 1.5L petrol model, the MINI Cooper typically sits in a moderate insurance group. Fuel economy is generally efficient for a small hatchback, though actual figures will depend on driving style and the 66,000+ mile usage.
Maintenance costs for this model can be higher than standard economy cars, particularly regarding tyres and braking components, which are noted as common failure points for this model aggregate. Expect an annual running cost that accounts for regular servicing and the higher-than-average mileage frequency.
Inspect the tyres thoroughly; the 2026 MOT noted both nearside and offside front tyres were worn close to the legal limit (3mm). Look for signs of 'feathering' or uneven wear on the edges, as the 2025 and 2026 tests both highlighted edge wear.
Check the condition of the undertrays, as the 2024 MOT recorded them as obscuring underbody components. Additionally, check the windscreen washer jets and brake pads, as these are identified in the aggregate data as top failure reasons for this model type.
This 2019 white MINI Cooper has covered 66,596 miles since its first registration in February 2019. The MOT history reveals frequent issues with tyre tread depth and wear, with failures and advisories appearing in four of the five recorded tests. The mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 6,214 miles per year, which should be factored into your valuation.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 87.7% MOT pass rate, with common failures related to tyres, washer jets, and brake pads.
