2015 MINI Cooper S 2.0L Petrol · LB64 BWP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While it passed its most recent test in February 2026 at 65,099 miles, it failed that same day due to multiple mechanical and safety defects. The transition from a clean record in 2025 to several failures in 2026 suggests that the owner is only addressing faults once they are flagged by the MOT tester. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 65,099 miles is low, averaging approximately 5,918 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent, with roughly 6,000 miles driven between February 2024 and February 2025, and another 6,000 miles covered in the following year leading to the 2026 test. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain, it can often lead to the degradation of rubber components and accelerated corrosion on metal parts due to infrequent use. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front suspension and braking system. The February 2026 failure highlighted a corroded offside front coil spring and worn front brakes, indicating that the suspension components are reaching the end of their service life. The 2025 failure regarding a structural bulge in the nearside front tyre also suggests the vehicle may have suffered impact damage or poor tyre management. You should specifically verify the condition of the windscreen and wiper blades, as these were flagged as defective in the most recent inspection.
