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

This 2011 Mini has 14 MOT tests on record with a 93% pass rate and 26,181 miles. The recent significant mileage increase is a concern.

The vehicle shows normal annual usage (6,063 miles/yr) until a significant spike in Feb 2026, where mileage jumped from 81,911 miles to 91,558 miles in just one year.

Things to check

  • A significant mileage increase of 9,647 miles in one year (Feb 2026) is unusual for a 15-year-old car.
  • One MOT failure (Jan 2022) with no defect details provided, suggesting a past unresolved issue.
  • The vehicle is a 2011 diesel, which is not ULEZ-compliant and will incur daily charges in London.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2024): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-19, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage (6,063 miles/yr) for its age, suggesting light use.
  • No major recurring failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
