2018 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · LO18 AVC

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following an improving trend in inspection outcomes. The most recent MOT conducted on 18 August 2025 at 87,553 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that previous mechanical or compliance issues have been addressed. While the history shows instances of immediate failure, the clean sheets from the last two consecutive tests suggest the vehicle is currently maintained to a standard that meets minimum safety requirements. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical UK usage for a family crossover, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per year. Between July 2023 at 70,245 miles and August 2024 at 80,384 miles, the car covered roughly 10,000 miles in thirteen months. The more recent interval of 7,169 miles between the August 2024 and August 2025 tests shows a very regular usage pattern, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components like seals and bushings to prevent the degradation associated with long periods of standing. The failures recorded in July 2023 and August 2024 indicate that the vehicle required reactive maintenance to meet passing standards. Although the specific failure reasons are not detailed in this summary, a buyer should perform a thorough physical inspection of the suspension arms and bushes, as these are common points of wear on this model at this mileage. Given the 87,000-mile threshold, close attention should also be paid to the condition of the brake discs and any signs of oil leaks that could lead to future failures if left unaddressed.
