2013 MINI Paceman 1.6L Petrol · YH13 FHB

The 2013 MINI PACEMAN presents a stable roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 2026-03-02 at 114,676 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. The maintenance trend across the last five years is steady, with no advisories or mechanical faults logged in any test. A failed test on 2025-03-03 at 113,268 miles shows no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component, and the vehicle passed again the same day at identical mileage. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,821 miles per year against the 13-year age, a typical use pattern for this model. The records show very low accumulation between tests: only 182 miles from 2024-03-05 (112,588 miles) to 2025-03-03 (113,268 miles), and just 1,408 miles across the full year to 2026-03-02. Such limited movement suggests the car spent long periods stationary or covered short local journeys, which can encourage corrosion and flat-spotted tyres even where the MOT stays clean. The DVSA history flags no recurring suspension bushes, coil spring, brake disc, or exhaust emission issues across the timeline. A buyer should still inspect structural integrity beneath the sills and subframes for rust given the low-use profile and age, as standing damp accelerates decay unseen by the tester. Verify the front brake calipers are free and the tyres are not perished from inactivity. Given the absent advisories and consistent passes, prior owners appear to have kept basic statutory testing current, though the 2025 same-day fail-pass pair implies a paperwork or presentation slip rather than neglected upkeep. A pre-purchase check of underbody condition and fluid freshness remains sensible on a 114,676-mile Paceman of this pattern.
