2010 MINI Cooper D 1.6L Diesel · PE60 ABF

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is assessed as non-compliant at a risk of failure, with the most recent MOT test recorded in the September 2025 test at 109,026 miles failing to pass due to severe corrosion on the rear sub-frame. This indicates a worsening trend of mechanical health, as the vehicle has not maintained a consistent MOT record since the 2024-10-02 inspection. The mileage pattern reveals a significant gap between the 2026-04-30 and 2026-04-29 tests. The vehicle accumulated approximately 9,511 miles between these two dates, which is consistent with normal wear on suspension and brakes but suggests that the owner may have skipped routine maintenance during this period. The rapid accumulation of miles since the 2023-10-13 test, where the vehicle passed with only minor corrosion on sub-frames, highlights a potential pattern of neglect where components like suspension bushings and brake discs were not addressed until the 2026-04-29 failure. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and corrosion in the rear sub-frame and suspension components (specifically the arm pins and bushings) and brake disc wear since the 2026-04-29 test. Given the history of corrosion on the rear sub-frame and the binding brake binding noted in the 2024-10-02 test, the primary risk is that the vehicle may have structural integrity issues if the brakes were not replaced or serviced between the 2024 and 2026-04-29 dates.
