AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Mini has 6 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 8,972 miles. The very low mileage is a critical red flag for potential odometer fraud.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 16,805 miles over 8 years, averaging only 2,200 miles per year, which is a significant anomaly and raises serious odometer fraud concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 16,805 mi over 8 years (typical: 50,521 mi, n=66 MINIs).
- 2023-08-11 MOT failure: Nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear effectively (major defect).
- 2025-08-19 MOT advisory: Nearside Front Tyre slightly damaged/cracking (tyre wear).
- Very low annual usage (2,200 mi/yr) suggests potential odometer fraud or long periods of inactivity.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-28, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects across its MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) demonstrates high safety standards.
- Relatively low engine capacity (1499cc) for a 2018 MINI model.
