2015 MINI Roadster 2.0L Diesel · MJ65 ONZ

The 2026-01-30 test at 58,976 miles was a PASSED test with no recorded defects, establishing a baseline for the vehicle's current roadworthiness. However, the 2026-01-29 test at 58,967 miles was a FAILED test, indicating that the vehicle has not maintained its approved condition since the previous year. This suggests a trend of worsening maintenance, as the failure occurred immediately prior to the most recent test, pointing to a potential issue with the braking system or suspension components that has not been addressed since the 2025-01-23 test at 55,104 miles. The mileage history shows a significant gap between the 2026-01-29 test and the 2025-01-23 test, with the vehicle reaching only 55,104 miles after a 38-day interval. This lack of data points to a period of inactivity or poor usage, where the vehicle may have been parked for extended periods, leading to wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. The rapid accumulation of miles since the 2025-01-23 test suggests that the drivetrain and suspension have experienced significant wear, which could have contributed to the 2026-01-29 failure. Given the failure on the 2026-01-29 test, a buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and mechanical components in person, focusing on the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain. A thorough check should include verifying the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as well as checking for corrosion on exhaust emissions and structural integrity. If the brakes are found to be in a binding condition or if the suspension shows excessive play, the vehicle may not meet the safety standards for a 2015 model, necessitating a full service over the next 12 months.
