Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This 2004 MINI Cooper was tested for its MOT very recently on 4 August 2025, just ten months ago. The most recent result is a pass, but it was only achieved after a failure just three days prior. The final pass still listed several advisories, including an oil leak, corroded rear brake discs, and worn front shock absorber bushes. The clear recurring mechanical pattern in this car's history is ongoing wear to the front suspension and steering components, combined with a persistent oil leak. The front shock absorber bushes have been noted as slightly worn or worn in every single MOT from 2022 to 2025. More seriously, play or excessive wear in nearside front suspension arms, track rod ends, and ball joints was flagged in 2023, 2024, and failed the test in 2025. This indicates a specific area of the car that has needed repeated attention. The trend does not look stable; it appears to be worsening. The same front suspension bushes went from a "slight" wear advisory in 2022-2023 to a more serious advisory in August 2025. The track rod end went from slight play in 2024 to the lower ball joint being excessively worn by 2025, which is a failure item.
