2018 MINI Countryman 2.0L Petrol · YA18 UJV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend following a previous failure. The most recent test conducted on 29 May 2025 at 98,839 miles passed with only an advisory for a damaged windscreen that did not obstruct the driver's view. This follows two consecutive clean passes in 2024 and 2023, indicating that the primary mechanical and structural components have met standards over the last two years. The mileage profile reflects consistent high-intensity usage, averaging 12,355 miles per year over the eight-year period. A significant interval of 11,438 miles occurred between the June 2023 and June 2024 tests, with another 11,418 miles recorded before the May 2025 test. This rate of accumulation typically puts accelerated strain on wear and tear items such as suspension bushings, shock absorbers, and braking components. The regularity of the mileage suggests the vehicle is used regularly rather than sitting for long periods. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the tyres, given the history of tyre-related issues. The 2022 advisories for cuts on the rear tyres and the June 2023 failure for exposed cords on the offside front tyre suggest a history of impact damage or neglect regarding rubber consumables. Because the vehicle is approaching the 100,000-mile mark, a thorough check of the suspension geometry and the condition of the brake discs is essential, as these components often reach the end of their life at this mileage. The lack of structural advisories in the record suggests the chassis remains sound without significant corrosion for now.
