2016 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · RF66 OGP

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 1 December 2025 at 14,054 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This stability across the last five years of testing indicates that the primary mechanical components, such as the braking system and suspension, have remained within operational parameters without recurring failures or degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,400 miles per annum. There is a notable discrepancy in the data between the 2022 test at 16,945 miles and the November 2021 test at 13,136 miles, which suggests either an odometer reading error or a period of significant inactivity. Since the 2022 test, the car has covered only 2,891 miles, confirming a pattern of very infrequent use or long periods of storage. This low usage limits wear on the drivetrain and engine. While the MOT record shows no history of structural corrosion or mechanical failure, a buyer must account for risks associated with low-mileage vehicles. Long stationary periods often lead to flat-spotted tyres, perished rubber seals, and fluid degradation. A physical inspection should focus on checking the brake calipers for seizing due to lack of use and verifying the condition of suspension bushes for cracks. The age of the tyres and the battery is equally critical, as these components often degrade over time despite low tread depth.
