2010 MINI ONE Clubman 1.6L Petrol · WK10 FJZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of developing structural and electrical issues. The most recent test in January 2026 at 100,726 miles showed an initial failure due to a supplementary restraint system warning lamp and discoloured indicator lenses. While the indicators were replaced to secure a pass, the presence of an SRS fault lamp indicates a persistent electrical fault in the airbag or seatbelt tensioner system that was not documented as rectified in the re-test. At 100,726 miles, the Clubman averages approximately 6,300 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a sixteen-year-old vehicle. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 1,300 miles covered between February 2024 and January 2025, and another 500 miles leading into the January 2026 test. This low annual mileage suggests light mechanical wear, but the age-related degradation of rubber components and metal oxidation remains evident despite the low odometer. A buyer must pay close attention to the structural integrity of the chassis components. The January 2026 test flagged corrosion on the front sub-frame, while the February 2024 record identified worn pins and bushes on the rear upper sub-frame. These recurring mentions suggest that the sub-frame assemblies are beginning to deteriorate. A physical inspection is required to determine the depth of the front sub-frame corrosion and ensure it has not progressed beyond the point of requiring expensive structural welding. The braking system also warrants scrutiny. The February 2024 test noted the offside front service brake binding, which often indicates a sticking caliper piston or a perished slide pin. Combined with the unresolved SRS warning lamp from the most recent MOT, the vehicle requires a thorough check of the safety-critical electronic systems and braking hardware to ensure no hidden faults before purchase.
