2018 MINI Cooper S 2.0L Petrol · X15 LMW

The vehicle holds a valid MOT certificate from the test on 19 December 2025 at 61,855 miles, leaving approximately six months of MOT cover remaining as of June 2026. The record reveals a pattern of deferred remedial work, where the owner rectified a binding offside front brake and a TPMS warning lamp to secure a pass after an immediate failure on the same day. While the car is legally roadworthy, the history indicates a reactive approach to mechanical upkeep rather than preventative maintenance. Mileage accumulation appears consistent and typical for the vehicle's age. The odometer progressed from 43,654 miles in December 2023 to 52,905 miles in December 2024, and finally to 61,855 miles by the end of 2025. This averages approximately 9,000 miles per year over the monitored period. There are no significant gaps or irregular usage patterns suggesting the car has been stored or clocked. Recurring advisories on the front braking system demand close scrutiny. Testers flagged front brake pads as wearing thin as early as December 2023, and by December 2025, the front discs were noted as worn, pitted, or scored. This suggests the front friction components may have endured extended use beyond their optimal service life. The history also highlights neglect regarding tyre condition, with a structural bulge causing a failure in 2024 following a sidewall damage advisory the previous year. A prospective buyer should verify that the front discs and pads have been fully replaced since the last test and inspect the tyre sidewalls for fresh signs of perishing or impact damage. The persistent windscreen chip and recurring TPMS faults also warrant a diagnostic check to ensure the sensor system functions correctly.
