2018 MINI John Cooper Works 2.0L Petrol · YJ67 ACP

The vehicle remains roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the April 2025 test at 26,012 miles where the examiner recorded a pass with no defects. Earlier inspections show the same outcome: the March 2024 test at 22,528 miles, the February 2023 test at 18,320 miles, the February 2022 test at 15,025 miles and the March 2021 test at 11,895 miles all returned passes with zero advisories. This unbroken sequence of clean results demonstrates the previous owner addressed any wear before each annual examination and avoided both minor consumable failures and serious structural or mechanical faults. The mileage pattern reveals exceptionally light use for an eight-year-old performance model. Between March 2021 and February 2022 the odometer gained 3,130 miles, then 3,295 miles to February 2023, 4,208 miles to March 2024 and 3,484 miles to April 2025, averaging near 3,250 miles per year. No dramatic accumulation or extended dormant gaps beyond a standard annual cycle appear in the record. Such low coverage implies the car stood unused for lengthy periods, a habit that can conceal perished suspension bushes or corroded brake discs not always caught on a static ramp. A buyer should still arrange a hands-on inspection of core components despite the fault-free MOT trail. The tester logged no advisories on coil springs, binding calipers, exhaust emissions or structural integrity, yet aged rubber and metal demand scrutiny. We advise checking suspension bushes for cracking, brake discs for rust pitting, and subframe or sill areas for surface corrosion brought on by inactivity. The clean history suggests careful ownership, but low-mileage John Cooper Works units require verification of drivetrain seals and suspension articulation that paperwork alone cannot confirm.
