2017 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · SL67 ACX

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 March 2026 at 41,322 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a rapid rectification of a minor issue before the final pass was issued. The mileage pattern is consistently low for a nine year old car, averaging roughly 4,591 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, moving from 26,290 miles in March 2023 to 31,732 miles in March 2024, and eventually reaching 41,322 miles by March 2026. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest undocumented commercial use or long periods of stagnation. The absence of any advisories or failures across four years of testing is rare. The tester flagged no issues regarding brake disc wear, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions. There is no evidence of structural corrosion or recurring mechanical faults in the DVSA data. This suggests a previous owner who adhered to a strict maintenance schedule or a vehicle that has seen very light duty. A physical inspection should focus on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished tyre rubber or brake caliper seizing due to inactivity. Check the date codes on the tyres and ensure the brake pedal feel is firm. Verify that the engine oil and coolant show no signs of contamination, as short trips can lead to premature sludge buildup in the oil system.
