2018 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · MM68 OAD

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently stable maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted on 7 July 2025 at 21,952 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean sheet persists across the last five tests, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,744 miles per year. Between the November 2021 test at 15,795 miles and the July 2025 test at 21,952 miles, the car covered only 6,157 miles. While low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it also implies a potential risk of issues associated with long periods of inactivity. The consistent annual intervals between tests show the car has been used regularly rather than being left stationary for years at a time. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage use. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as these can often develop when a vehicle is not driven frequently enough to clear the rubber from the rotors. Inspect the rubber seals and tyres for cracking or dry rot, as material ages over time regardless of tread depth. Since the MOT record shows no previous advisories for suspension bushes or exhaust corrosion, the structural integrity of the chassis appears sound, but a visual check of fluid levels for degradation is necessary given the low usage profile.
