MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Mini Mini (WR55 APO) between October 2008 and September 2025.

The record contains 16 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 19 September 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (43 issues), Brakes (43 issues), Tyres (21 issues), Suspension (20 issues), Windscreen (16 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 118 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: “Body component likely to become detached exhaust centre heat shield detached (6.2.1 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps (4.7.1 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps (4.7.1 (b) (ii))”.
