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

This 2004 Mini has 20 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 32,317 miles. The vehicle's low annual usage and a 2020 service gap warrant careful investigation.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Mar 2019 (261 mi/yr equivalent) and again before Jul 2021 (15 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant drop in usage from 2019 to 2023.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage before Mar 2019 (261 mi/yr equivalent).
  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage before Jul 2021 (15 mi/yr equivalent).
  • Recurring advisories: Tyres flagged as worn close to legal limit in Mar 2019.
  • Service gap: No MOT recorded for 2020, indicating a potential SORN or off-road period.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2024): 5-star safety rating.
  • Clean MOT record: 6 consecutive passes with no failures recorded.
  • Valid MOT until 2026-07-14, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • No dangerous defects: All past advisories were minor and non-structural.
