Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Mini Mini (SM54 YML) between January 2008 and December 2021.

The record contains 15 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (29 issues), Lighting (18 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
