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

This 2013 Mini has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 22,880 miles. The recurring nature of these issues, combined with a recent MOT failure, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows a significant drop from 79,643 miles in Dec 2022 to 79,754 miles in Jan 2024, followed by a further decrease to 87,191 miles in Jun 2025, indicating a major odometer fraud or a severe data anomaly.

Things to check

  • Major brake failure on 2024-01-01 (79,643 mi) — a critical safety system.
  • Major suspension failure on 2024-01-01 (79,643 mi) — structural integrity compromised.
