2009 MINI 1.6L Petrol · WL09 GVY

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status following the February 2026 test at 89,925 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with three passes and two administrative fails carrying no recorded defects. The most recent failure on 25 February 2026 at 89,925 miles shows no faults, indicating a documentation or process anomaly rather than a mechanical defect. Recorded mileage sits at 89,925 miles against a 2009 build, equating to roughly 5,290 miles per year and confirming light use for the age. The DVSA data shows 80,301 miles in March 2024, 85,244 miles at the March 2025 failure, 85,297 miles on the pass three days later, and 89,925 miles by February 2026. Annual accumulation stays near 4,600 to 4,700 miles with no sudden jumps. The clean record across all entries means no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions were ever logged. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car's seventeen years. Low mileage often masks perished rubber components and standing-water rust where the MOT did not flag items. Check coil springs, suspension arms, and brake calipers for binding or seepage not captured in the defect-free tests. The repeated zero-defect fails on 20 March 2025 and 25 February 2026 suggest clerical re-entry rather than owner neglect. Previous keepers likely maintained basic upkeep, though the sparse history limits insight into consumable replacement cycles for tyres or wiper blades.
