2014 MINI Countryman 1.6L Petrol · SP14 XHU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT on October 10, 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite a single-point failure on that same day due to a fractured offside rear coil spring. This mechanical fault was addressed immediately, as the car passed the시험 with no further defects. Prior to this incident, the vehicle maintained a clean record for several years, suggesting that previous owners generally addressed MOT safety requirements as they arose. At 57,831 miles, this 2014 model has covered significantly less mileage than average, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent but low-intensity usage, with only 4,597 miles driven between February 2022 and February 2023. A further 2,358 mile gap between February 2023 and April 2024 indicates the vehicle undergoes long periods of inactivity. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, vehicles that sit for long durations can suffer from rubber degradation and fluid breakdown which are not reflected in mileage figures. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension geometry to ensure the replacement offside rear coil spring was fitted correctly. Given the low annual mileage and high age, it is vital to check for cracking in rubber bushings and arm components which perish over time regardless of distance. The 2024 advisory regarding an inoperative nearside registration lamp suggests a minor electrical oversight, but a full check of all exterior lighting is necessary. There is no recorded evidence of structural corrosion or recurring brake issues in the history, which is a positive indicator for a vehicle of this age.
