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

This 2008 Mini has 20 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 6,910 miles. While recent failures were addressed, the consistent need for repairs suggests a high-maintenance vehicle.

The vehicle has extremely low annual mileage averaging 3,154 miles/year, with a significant 18-year gap from registration to its first MOT in 2018, raising questions about its true usage and maintenance history.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake failures and advisories (Nov 2024, Nov 2025) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories (Nov 2024, Nov 2025) suggest poor maintenance.
  • Recurring suspension failures and advisories (Nov 2024, Nov 2025) point to structural neglect.
  • First MOT in 2018 after 10 years of registration is highly irregular and raises concerns.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-17, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT data.
  • All past failures were immediately rectified and passed on subsequent retests.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) suggests good inherent safety features.
