2017 MINI Cooper S 2.0L Petrol · LR17 AEJ

The 2017 MINI Cooper S presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 16 February 2026 at 70,516 miles passed with no defects recorded. Every annual examination from 2022 through 2026 returned a pass with no advisories, showing the vehicle has avoided recurring mechanical or structural faults across its later service life. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a nine-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,835 miles per year against the 70,516 miles recorded. The test on 23 March 2022 at 51,008 miles and the 12 April 2023 entry at 56,749 miles reflect steady use. A minor gap appears between the 2023 and 2024 tests, shifting from April to 12 April 2024 at 61,855 miles, then a longer gap to 22 February 2025 at 66,432 miles. The final jump to 70,516 miles by February 2026 shows consistent low annual cover. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, with no recorded advisories on tyres, suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion across the timeline. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable items not always captured in a pass result. The clean record gives no signal of binding calipers, worn coil springs, or exhaust emissions issues, but standing periods implied by the low yearly mileage can conceal perished rubber components and surface corrosion on structural members. Verify the condition of brake hoses, underbody rust protection, and tyre sidewall cracking before purchase. Given five consecutive passes with zero advisories, prior owners appear to have maintained the vehicle to a standard that cleared each MOT without flagged wear. This limits immediate risk but does not replace a physical check of suspension articulation and brake balance on the current date.
