2017 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · LD67 AEL

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 25 February 2026 at 46,462 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend over the last five years, suggesting that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements to ensure the car meets DVSA standards without failure. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,162 miles per year. Between February 2022 at 18,346 miles and February 2026 at 46,462 miles, the car covered 28,116 miles. This consistent, low-annual usage suggests light use which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. However, low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from degradation of rubber-based components or corrosion on brake discs if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods between tests. While the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on components common to low-mileage MINI models. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or fatigue, as these can age regardless of distance driven. Examine the brake discs for signs of surface rust or pitting, given the low frequency of use. Additionally, inspect the underbody for any early signs of structural corrosion on the sills to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the true physical integrity of the chassis.
