2017 MINI ONE 1.2L Petrol · WR67 RCY

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear decline in basic consumable upkeep. While it passed its latest test in April 2026 at 31,070 miles, the tester flagged thin front brake pads and an offside front tyre worn to the legal limit. This follows a similar advisory from May 2025 at 30,263 miles, where the same tyre was noted as perished and pads as low. These recurring issues suggest a reactive approach to maintenance rather than a preventative one. The recorded mileage of 31,070 miles is significantly low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,450 miles per annum. Data shows consistent low-usage patterns, with only 807 miles driven between the May 2025 and the April 2026 tests. However, the presence of perished and cracking tyres in 2022, 2025, and 2026 indicates the car likely sits for long periods, which leads to rubber degradation despite the low mileage-related tread wear. A buyer must inspect the entire braking system in person, as the repeated reports of low pads indicate potential neglect of more expensive components. The buyer should check the brake discs for pitting or corrosion, which often occurs when vehicles remain stationary. Given the history of perished sidewalls, a thorough check of all four tyres for sidewall cracking is essential to ensure safety. No structural corrosion or suspension failures have been noted in the record, but the focus remains entirely on the wear and age of rubber-related items.
