2017 MINI Countryman 1.5L Petrol · YB67 PYZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent pass on 7 November 2025 at 28,356 miles. While the record shows a history of consumable failures, the most recent test indicates that previous issues have been addressed. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, moving from a failed test in February 2024 to clean passes in the subsequent tests. The mileage profile is notably low for a 2017 model, averaging approximately 3,151 miles per year. The data shows a consistent, albeit slow, increase in usage, climbing from 6,784 miles in January 2021 to 28,356 miles in November 2025. This low annual mileage suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary, which often leads to the specific types of degradation seen in the records. The MOT history highlights a recurring pattern of tyre deterioration. In January 2023, the tester flagged cracking and perishing on the rear and offside front tyres. This issue escalated into a failure in February 2024 at 14,399 miles, where the vehicle failed due to damaged, perishing, and worn tyres, alongside ineffective windscreen wipers. The November 2024 test also noted a minor exhaust gas leak at the rear exhaust. A prospective buyer should focus on the condition of the rubber components and the exhaust system. Because the low mileage likely contributes to tyre sidewall cracking and perishing, a physical inspection of all tyres for age-related degradation is necessary, regardless of tread depth. The minor exhaust leak noted in November 2024 should be verified to ensure it was rectified and hasn't progressed into a more significant structural failure of the exhaust manifold or piping.
