2015 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · WN15 YCD

A consistent track record of clean MOT results defines this vehicle, with the most recent test on 30 September 2025 showing a pass with no defects. While the 2025 inspection initially resulted in a failure due to a front windscreen wiper failing to clear the glass effectively, this was rectified to achieve a clean pass. Aside from a minor windscreen damage entry in 2020 and a tyre pressure monitoring system issue in 2021, the vehicle has maintained a stable roadworthiness profile without any recorded failures related to structural integrity, braking systems, or suspension components. The recorded mileage of 68,076 miles against an 11-year age profile indicates a usage pattern of approximately 6,189 miles per year. This level of annual accumulation is typical for a vehicle of this age and suggests a regular driving schedule rather than long periods of stationary use. Mechanically, this moderate mileage means that while major drivetrain components may not have reached high-wear thresholds, consumable items such as suspension bushes, brake discs, and various rubber seals will likely be entering a phase of age-related degradation regardless of the total distance covered. Prospective buyers should pay specific attention to the tyre pressure monitoring system, which was flagged as malfunctioning in 2020 and noted as an advisory in 2021. During a test drive, ensure that no warning lights remain illuminated on the dashboard and verify that the system correctly identifies pressure changes if possible. Although the wiper failure in 2025 was resolved, it is worth observing the wiper sweep pattern during wet weather to ensure there is no intermittent streaking or shuddering, which could indicate worn wiper blades or motor fatigue. Given the absence of recorded issues with the underside or braking system, a physical inspection of the brake pads, discs, and any visible fluid leaks around the engine bay and suspension linkages is advised. While the MOT history does not show any recorded corrosion or suspension failures, the moderate mileage suggests checking for any subtle knocks or knocks when driving over uneven surfaces, which would indicate wear in the suspension bushings or coil springs.
