2018 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · LP68 OPG

The 2025‑12‑29 MOT at 64,141 miles passed with no defects, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance record. All five tests from Dec 2022 through Dec 2025 have produced clean outcomes, showing no evidence of worsening or improving mechanical condition. The mileage trajectory reflects typical usage for an eight‑year‑old MINI, averaging 8,018 miles per year, yet the jump from 38,616 miles in Dec 2023 to 52,209 miles in Dec 2024 adds 13,593 miles in a single year, a rapid accumulation that may accelerate wear on suspension bushes, coil springs and brake components. The 2024‑12‑31 entry lists both a pass and a failure at the same mileage with no recorded defects, suggesting a possible clerical inconsistency that should be verified. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of binding or corrosion, examine the rear brake calipers for binding and the condition of the brake discs, and check the chassis and exhaust for structural rust; assess tyre tread depth and wiper blade integrity as consumable items that often reveal neglect despite the clean MOT history.
