Mini Cooper 2017
Typical odometer reading from real UK MOT records. Median is what half of these cars read; the band shows where most fall. Kilometres, with miles alongside.
Based on N = 30,996 UK MOT odometer readings. DVSA anonymised MOT test results 2023 (UK headline band), Open Government Licence v3.0.

EU recall signals for the Mini Cooper
Model-level recall activity from EU market registers. Counts are advisory and are shown per source, never added together. Not specific to this car.
In the Dutch RDW register, about 0.9% of registered Mini Cooper cars currently carry at least one open recall. Recalls apply to production windows, not model years alone. See the full per source breakdown, with dates and the reported risk, on the Mini Cooper recalls page.
UK MOT reliability, proxy for ex-UK imports
UK MOT fleet, proxy data for ex-UK imports (ADR 0007). This is UK data, shown here only because the model also carries an EU signal above.
Of 28,004 initial (first attempt) class 4 MOT tests on 2017 Mini Cooper cars in 2023, 11.0% failed. That is lower than the 13.5% median for cars of the same age in this fleet (a 2.5 point difference).
Source: DVSA anonymised MOT test results 2023, Open Government Licence v3.0. A UK fleet proxy, not a per-car result. Many imports to the Baltics are ex-UK, so the UK failure pattern is a useful, honestly labelled prior. It is not a substitute for an inspection.

What this is, and what it is not
These figures are an aggregate distribution across many Mini Cooper cars of the 2017 model year, computed from UK DVSA MOT odometer readings used as a fleet proxy. The MOT dataset is anonymised and carries no VIN and no personal data.
It is not a per-VIN history. It cannot tell you the mileage of one specific car or whether a particular odometer was wound back. Use it as a sanity check: a reading far below the typical band for the age is a clue worth investigating, not proof of anything on its own.
To decode a specific VIN, use the free VIN decoder. For a per-VIN odometer pre-check against official READ-type readings (UK DVSA MOT, plus the Dutch RDW verdict when you add a plate), use the mileage & rollback check. For exactly how this band is computed and every source behind it, see the data methodology.
