MOT Analysis

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

30 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Mini Mini (Y26 GLD) between March 2009 and July 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 07 July 2026 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: Tyres (19 issues), Brakes (16 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues), Lighting (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 26 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: “Offside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm Inner edge (5.2.3 (e))”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm Edges (5.2.3 (e))”.
