2015 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · MH65 DYM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend following a period of minor consumable issues. The most recent test in December 2025 at 89,139 miles resulted in a pass, although the tester noted an offside rear child seat prevented a full inspection of the adult belt. This follows two clean passes in late 2023 and 2024, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have remained compliant with standards recently. At 89,139 miles over eleven years, the car has averaged approximately 8,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a vehicle this age. The mileage progression shows consistent use, with roughly 11,000 miles covered between December 2023 and December 2024, and another 16,400 miles in the year leading up to December 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of inactivity that often lead to seal failure or fluid degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyres, as the history shows recurring issues with this component. The 2022 test flagged perishing and cracking on both rear tyres, while the December 2023 failure was due to deep cuts reaching the ply cords on both rear tyres. While these appear to have been rectified, the pattern suggests a history of neglect regarding tyre condition or exposure to harsh road environments. Given the lack of recorded defects for suspension bushes or brake components, the priority should remain on verifying the current state of the rubber and checking for any new corrosion that was not captured in the MOT tests.
