2015 MINI Roadster 1.6L Petrol · WH15 KGX

The vehicle presents a stable and improving maintenance profile, with the most recent MOT tests showing no defects. The October 2025 test at 47,990 miles passed without any advisories or failures, mirroring the clean result from the October 2024 test at 44,704 miles. This recent history suggests that previous mechanical issues have been addressed and the vehicle is currently maintaining a high standard of roadworthiness. The mileage accumulation is notably low for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,363 miles per year. The records show consistent, incremental growth in mileage, such as the 4,393-mile increase between October 2024 and October 2025. This pattern indicates regular, light use rather than long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals often found in vehicles that sit idle for extended periods. The MOT history reveals a period of minor consumable wear and light maintenance requirements between 2021 and 2022. In October 2021 at 31,740 miles, the tester flagged pitting and scoring on the front brake discs along with general wear on the rear discs. This trend continued into the October 2022 test at 36,451 miles, where the vehicle initially failed due to a non-functional offside rear stop lamp, incorrect headlamp aim, a worn nearside rear tyre, and lipped front brake discs. While these were primarily consumable items, the recurrence of brake disc issues suggests a pattern of standard wear typical for this mileage. A prospective buyer should focus a physical inspection on the braking system and tyre condition. Although the recent tests are clean, the history of worn and pitted discs warrants a close check of the current brake pad thickness and disc surface integrity to ensure no uneven wear has developed. Given the low annual mileage, checking the condition of suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking is also advisable, as rubber components can degrade even when not subjected to heavy road use.
