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 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 28,831 miles. The recurring tyre advisories and a DANGEROUS defect on the subframe also raise significant concerns.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Sep 2015 (59 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal annual usage from 2015 onwards, averaging 6,136 miles/year.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect recorded on 2025-08-05 for subframe corrosion.
  • Suspension failure on 2025-08-05 for excessively worn anti-roll bar bush.
  • Recurring tyre advisories across 6 tests (2020, 2023, 2024) indicate chronic wear.
  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low usage (59 mi/yr equivalent) from 2011 to 2015.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-08-04, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
  • Consistent annual mileage since 2015, suggesting regular use.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) for a 2011 model.
