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 14 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 9,361 miles. The vehicle's extremely low annual mileage (4,480 miles/yr) also warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 4,480 miles/year, with a notable drop in usage from 2019 onwards (e.g., 2,059 miles in 2025-2026).

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure recorded on 2019-04-04 (test 8).
  • Recurring brake advisories (2019, 2026) and a major failure (2023) indicate systemic brake issues.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (2017, 2022, 2025, 2026) and a major failure (2021) suggest chronic tyre neglect.
  • Extremely low annual mileage (4,480 miles/yr) for a 2013 vehicle is a significant red flag for potential long-term neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-04-03, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • No mileage anomalies or fraud detected in the MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
