Our Verdict
Strongly recommended for buyers seeking
Focus your attention on the service history to confirm that oil and filter changes have been performed at the recommended intervals; very low annual mileage can sometimes lead to neglected service schedules. Ensure the tyres are within their legal age limit, as low-mileage vehicles often have tyres that age out (perish) before the tread actually wears down.
Given the lack of MOT defects, negotiation should focus on the completeness of the service book and the current state of the battery, which can degrade if the car has spent long periods stationary.
The 1499cc petrol engine provides a balance of performance and efficiency typical of the Cooper S range. You can expect moderate fuel costs and a standard insurance group for this engine variant. Annual road tax will be based on the CO2 emissions recorded at the time of its 2016 registration.
Typical maintenance for this model is generally predictable, although the low mileage may mean fewer immediate repairs are needed. Estimated annual costs include fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing.
While this specific vehicle has no recorded MOT defects, aggregate data for this model shows that failures often relate to tyres, headlamps, and windscreen wipers; check these components for signs of perishing or wear. Inspect the black paintwork carefully for stone chips or swirl marks, as this colour tends to highlight imperfections.
Check for any signs of moisture or leaks in the engine bay, and ensure all electrical components are functioning correctly, as low-use vehicles can occasionally develop electrical dormant issues.
This black 2016 MINI Cooper S has covered just 25,704 miles since its first registration in September 2016. It possesses a consistent MOT record from 2022 through to 2026, with every test resulting in a pass and no defects listed. This puts the vehicle significantly below the average mileage expected for its age.
The Cooper S has a respectable average MOT pass rate of 88% across nearly 100,000 analysed vehicles.
