Our Verdict
Strong recommendation. This vehicle comb
Verify the service history to confirm that the anti-roll bar ball joint and linkage pin replaced in 2023 were fitted with quality parts. Given the low mileage for a diesel engine, check for evidence of regular oil changes to ensure the engine has not suffered from the effects of infrequent use or short-trip driving.
The 1598cc diesel engine typically provides better fuel economy than the petrol equivalents of this era. Road tax and insurance will be based on the 2010 registration specifications and the owner's profile.
Typical maintenance for this model includes periodic tyre replacements and brake system checks. Annual running costs will be influenced by the diesel fuel price and the insurance group assigned to this specific MINI variant.
Inspect the front suspension and anti-roll bar linkages, as these were the specific cause of the MOT failure in 2023. While not present in this vehicle's recent history, check the headlamps, tyres, and brake pipes for wear or corrosion, as these are the most common failure points for this model across the wider UK fleet.
Check the exhaust and DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) for signs of soot buildup, which can occur in low-mileage diesel cars that are not frequently driven at motorway speeds.
This blue 2010 MINI diesel has recorded 52,073 miles, which is lower than the average expected for this model's age. The MOT history is predominantly clean, with the three most recent tests passing without any defects. The only recorded failure occurred in April 2023 regarding front anti-roll bar components, which was resolved within 24 hours.
This model has a general MOT pass rate of 75.6%, with the most frequent failures relating to headlamps, tyres, and brake pipes.
