2018 MINI Cooper 1.5L Petrol · YL18 MLN

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 15 August 2025 at 70,633 miles passed with no defects, indicating that the car remains in good mechanical and structural condition. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the owner has maintained the vehicle to a standard that prevents minor mechanical issues from accumulating. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per year. Between the August 2022 test at 38,186 miles and the September 2024 test at 62,675 miles, the vehicle covered over 24,000 miles, showing a steady driving habit. The recent interval of 7,958 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests confirms a consistent usage profile, which generally benefits the engine seals and drivetrain components compared to long periods of inactivity. The single failure recorded on 12 September 2023 at 51,871 miles is the only anomaly in an otherwise flawless history. Since the vehicle passed immediately thereafter on the same day, the fault was likely a minor consumable or a simple adjustment requirement rather than a systemic mechanical failure. Because there are no recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake corrosion, or exhaust leaks in the record, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on the current rubber components and tyre tread depth, as these are the only elements likely to show wear at the 70,000-mile mark.
