2020 MINI Clubman 1.5L Petrol · SW69 JVT

This 2020 Mini Clubman has covered approximately 21,377 miles, which is significantly lower than the average for a vehicle of this age. While low mileage can sometimes suggest a well-preserved car, the MOT history indicates that this vehicle has likely experienced some harsh road conditions or impacts, which is common for cars that may have been driven on poorer surfaces or subjected to curb strikes. The most concerning pattern in the history is the recurring damage to the wheels and tyres. In early 2023, the vehicle failed its MOT due to exposed cords on a tyre and distorted road wheels on the nearside. While the vehicle passed its most recent inspection in October 2025, it was noted that the offside front brake pads were 70 percent worn and the nearside rear tyre was slightly damaged. This suggests that despite the low mileage, the vehicle is still subject to wear and tear that requires consistent maintenance. The overall trend shows an improvement since the failed test in early 2023, as the subsequent two annual tests were clean passes. However, the re-emergence of tyre damage and brake wear in the most recent 2025 test indicates that the car is not immune to standard consumable degradation. The history of wheel distortion is a specific red flag, as it points to potential impacts that could have placed stress on the suspension components, even if those components have not yet failed an MOT. Because of the history of wheel distortion and tyre damage, you should prioritize a thorough inspection of the suspension and steering geometry.
