2010 MINI 1.6L Petrol · LV10 PPU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 17 October 2025 at 53,351 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a pattern of minor lighting failures rather than escalating mechanical or structural degradation. While the car failed its last two tests, it passed without any advisories or defects, indicating that the core components such as brakes and suspension remain in acceptable condition according to testing standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,334 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage over the years, moving from 50,338 miles in November 2023 to 52,061 miles in November 2024, and reaching 53,351 miles by October 2025. This low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or the corrosion of brake seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the electrical system, as the recurring failures in 2024 and 2025 involved multiple position lamps and stop lamps. These repeated issues suggest either bulb neglect or corroded wiring within the light clusters. Given the age and low mileage, it is also vital to check for signs of dry rot on the tyres and perished suspension bushes, which are common failure points on vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods.
