2020 MINI Clubman 1.5L Petrol · LK20 UTS

The most recent MOT in January 2026 was a pass, but you should treat the tyre advisories as an immediate priority. Both front tyres were recorded as worn close to the legal limit and specifically worn on the edge. This suggests the car is currently driving on tyres that will need replacement very soon, if they have not been changed already since the test. There is a clear and recurring pattern regarding tyre condition on this vehicle. In 2024, the rear tyres were flagged for cracking or perishing, which often indicates age or periods of the vehicle standing still. By 2026, the issue has shifted to the front tyres showing heavy wear. This progression suggests the maintenance schedule has been reactive rather than proactive, allowing components to reach the end of their life before being addressed. The overall condition trend regarding consumables appears to be worsening. While the 2025 test was clean, the return to tyre defects in 2026 highlights that the car is now consuming these parts more rapidly. The mileage jumped significantly in the last year, covering over 12,000 miles since the 2025 test, which explains the accelerated wear on the front axle.
