2016 MINI ONE 1.5L Diesel · MH65 VMT

The 2016 MINI ONE with 77,502 miles passed its most recent MOT on 2025-11-04, but the preceding test on 2025-11-03 failed despite identical mileage. This inconsistency suggests potential issues with test procedures or minor faults that resolved between tests. No defects were recorded in any MOT, indicating a stable maintenance trend overall. However, the repeated failures at 68,242 and 77,499 miles—without recorded faults—warrant scrutiny, as they may reflect procedural errors or transient issues requiring further inspection. The vehicle’s mileage of 77,502 miles over 10 years aligns with an average of 7,750 miles annually, typical for its age. A notable jump from 59,887 miles (2023) to 68,242 miles (2024) suggests a 10-month period with 8,355 miles, slightly above average. The 2024-2025 interval saw 9,260 miles, maintaining a steady upward trend. The MOT history is sparse but clean, with no recurring defects flagged. However, the lack of detailed fault reports limits insight into potential wear on components like suspension bushes or brake discs. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension system, particularly coil springs and bushings, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The absence of recorded brake-related issues does not preclude checking for binding calipers or uneven brake disc wear, which may not trigger MOT failures. Structural integrity and corrosion, especially in the exhaust system, should also be assessed. While the MOT records show no critical faults, the repeated test failures without defect listings highlight the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle’s roadworthiness.
