This 2008 Mini has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 12,448 miles.
The vehicle shows only 12,448 miles over 18 years, a significant anomaly from the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, suggesting potential odometer fraud or a long period of inactivity.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 12,448 miles over 18 years (typical: 84,568 miles, n=59 MINIs).
- Mileage anomaly: 1,133 miles added between Aug 2022 and Sep 2024, a 3-year period with only 1,133 miles.
- MOT expiry date 2025-09-17 is future-dated, but MOT status is 'Not valid' — a critical inconsistency.
- No MOT tests recorded for 2023, indicating a significant gap in the vehicle's history.
Working in its favour
- No MOT failures recorded across 6 tests, indicating no immediate safety concerns.
- Clean recent MOT pass on 2024-09-17, suggesting current roadworthiness.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) confirms high safety standards for this model.
- No recurring advisories or failures on the same system, indicating no structural neglect.
