MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Mini Mini (W18 HCM) between September 2011 and December 2025.

The record contains 15 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 15 December 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (10 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Steering (2 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Lighting (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Front Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (3.5 (a))”; “Nearside Front Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (3.5 (a))”; “Offside Front Coil spring worn so that its cross sectional area is reduced and seriously weakened spring broken (5.3.1 (”.
