This 2018 Mini has 6 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 27,395 miles. The 2023 service gap and potential for future tyre costs warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage with 27,395 miles in Oct 2021 and 65,712 miles in Jul 2025, averaging 8,753 miles/year.

Things to check

  • 2023 Service Gap: No MOT recorded for 2023, indicating a potential SORN or off-road period.
  • Recurring Tyre Issues: Front tyres worn (Nov 2022) and rear tyre cut (Jul 2024) suggest a pattern of wear.
  • Suspension Advisory: Nearside Front Suspension arm bush worn (Jul 2024) indicates upcoming repair needs.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2024): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT: Current MOT is valid until 2026-07-08, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent Mileage: Mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,753 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No Major Recurring Failures: While there were failures, no single system has failed repeatedly, indicating general maintenance.
