2018 MINI Clubman 1.5L Petrol · SJ11 DMJ

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history leading up to the most recent inspection. The May 2025 test at 37,282 miles shows a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle's core components were in a roadworthy condition at that time. While the record shows a failed test on the same date, the lack of specific defect descriptions makes it difficult to diagnose the exact cause, though the subsequent pass suggests the issue was rectified immediately. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle of this age. The data shows a consistent, gradual increase in distance covered, moving from 23,122 miles in May 2022 to 37,282 miles in May 2025. This averages approximately 4,720 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average. Such low usage patterns often suggest the vehicle has been used for short, occasional trips rather than heavy motorway commuting, which can sometimes lead to carbon buildup in the engine or battery discharge issues if the car sits for extended periods. Given the low mileage and the clean record, there are no immediate red flags regarding structural integrity or major mechanical failures. However, the low annual mileage means the vehicle may have spent significant time stationary. A buyer should pay close attention to the condition of rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which can perish from age rather than wear. You should also inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and check the battery health, as these are common areas of concern for low-use vehicles. The absence of any advisories regarding brake pads, tyres, or exhaust emissions across the recorded history is a positive indicator of general upkeep. Since the MOT history is remarkably clean, the primary focus during a physical inspection should remain on verifying the service history to ensure that oil changes and fluid flushes have been performed regularly despite the low mileage.
