AI verdict AVOID 57/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2007 Mini has 20 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 16,821 miles. This fundamental data inconsistency makes a reliable assessment impossible and raises serious concerns.

The MOT history shows a critical 19-year gap in recorded mileage, with no readings from 2007 to 2019, followed by suspiciously low annual usage (e.g., 217 miles in 2025).

Things to check

  • Critical 19-year MOT mileage gap: No readings from 2007 to 2019.
  • Suspiciously low recent mileage: Only 217 miles recorded in 2025.
  • High-concern advisories: Recurring tyre and wheel issues (2010, 2011).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2024): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until March 2027: Offers immediate peace of mind.
  • No
