2017 MINI Clubman 2.0L Diesel · PJ67 NFN

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT following a pass on 20 May 2026 at 49,089 miles. The maintenance trend shows a recent decline in mechanical standards, moving from several years of clean certificates to a significant failure in May 2026. While the most recent test cleared the vehicle, the failure immediately preceding it indicates several neglected areas that required rectification. The vehicle has covered 49,089 miles over approximately nine years, averaging roughly 5,454 miles annually. This low annual mileage suggests light usage, which often correlates with fewer mechanical stresses on the drivetrain. However, the record shows a notable jump in mileage between December 2024 and May 2026, where the car covered nearly 10,000 miles in approximately 17 months. This acceleration in use coincides with the sudden appearance of multiple wear-related defects. The May 2026 failure reveals a pattern of deferred maintenance regarding consumables. The tester flagged both front and rear brake discs as worn, alongside significant tyre issues including baldness, edge wear, and cracking on the nearside and offside rear tyres. The presence of a fractured offside rear coil spring and headlamp aim issues during the failed test suggests that basic upkeep of the suspension and lighting systems was overlooked. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension components to ensure the fractured coil spring was replaced with a high-quality unit and that no further damage exists to the shock absorbers or bushes. Given the advisory regarding brake disc wear, a detailed check of the braking system is necessary to confirm the discs and pads have been adequately refreshed. Finally, inspect the tyres for consistent wear patterns to rule out underlying alignment or tracking issues.
