This 2011 Mini has 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 6,943 miles.
The vehicle shows only 6,943 miles in 15 years, significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, raising serious concerns about odometer accuracy.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 6,943 miles over 15 years (Sep 2018–Sep 2025).
- First MOT failure on 2015-09-22 for headlamp aim, though immediately rectified.
- Very low annual usage (3,095 miles/yr) suggests potential for long periods of inactivity.
- Community-reported high-risk faults: head gasket, rear strut/spring failure, ABS sensor, and timing chain.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-30, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring failures or dangerous defects found in the MOT history.
- Single past failure (headlamp aim, 2015) was immediately rectified and passed.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) indicates good safety features.
