2018 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · OV18 AEY

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history, indicating a stable and high standard of maintenance. The most recent test on 18 October 2025 at 60,603 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between 27 October 2022 and 18 October 2025, the odometer rose from 35,874 to 60,603 miles. This represents a steady usage pattern of approximately 8,000 miles per year over the last three years. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest periods of neglect or excessive short-trip city driving. The absence of any advisories across five consecutive tests is rare and suggests the previous owner adhered to a strict service regime. No recurring issues with suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions appear in the data. This lack of flagged wear on consumables suggests the car has been well-maintained beyond the minimum legal requirements. A physical inspection should focus on areas the MOT tester might overlook, such as the condition of the interior trim and the service history for oil changes and filter replacements. Given the clean record, the buyer should specifically check for any signs of fluid leaks under the engine or wear on the gearbox mounts to ensure the mechanical health matches the flawless DVSA documentation.
