2015 MINI John Cooper Works 1.6L Petrol · SA61 NEJ

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean roadworthiness status at its most recent inspection. The November 2025 test at 34,644 miles recorded no defects, indicating the car was in good mechanical order at that time. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without major failures over the last several years. While minor tyre issues appeared in previous years, the absence of any advisories in the last two annual tests suggests a high standard of upkeep or recent replacement of consumable components. The mileage history reflects very low usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,149 miles per year. Between March 2024 and November 2025, the mileage increased from 20,525 to 34,644, showing a more active period of use compared to the earlier years. This recent uptick in mileage is a positive sign for a vehicle of this age, as it suggests the car is being driven regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods, which can often lead to seized brakes or perished rubber components. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres, as the offside rear tyre was flagged with a cut in three consecutive tests between March 2022 and March 2024. Although these were not deep enough to reach the cords, the recurring nature of this advisory suggests a potential vulnerability to road debris or specific driving routes. Given the low annual mileage, a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs is advisable to check for age-related deterioration or corrosion that often affects vehicles kept in low-use cycles. The lack of structural or mechanical advisories regarding exhaust emissions or braking systems is encouraging. However, because the car has spent much of its life covering low distances, I recommend verifying that the battery and fluids have been maintained to prevent issues common with low-mileage vehicles. The overall data indicates a well-kept example that has transitioned from very light use into a more consistent driving pattern.
