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

This 2013 Mini has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 26,859 miles. While mileage is low, the vehicle's history suggests potential underlying issues.

The vehicle exhibits very low annual mileage averaging 5,495 miles/year, with a significant drop to 1,609 miles/year between March 2024 and March 2025, indicating periods of very low or no use.

Things to check

  • Dangerous tyre defect recorded on 2024-03-25 (Mar 2024 FAIL) — immediate safety concern.
  • Recurring subframe corrosion advisories across 4 separate MOT tests (Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Mar 2025, Mar 2026).
  • Recurring brake pad wear advisories across 2 separate MOT tests (Mar 2023, Mar 2026).
  • Recurring coil spring wear advisories across 2 separate MOT tests (Mar 2023, Mar 2026).

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-03-15, providing significant peace of mind for the next three years.
  • No major structural failures recorded in the MOT history, despite advisories.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (5,495 miles/year) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
