About the MINI Clubman

The MINI Clubman has 2 generations, from the R55 (2007-2014) to the F54 (2015+) in our UK model data. The first MOT falls due at different points across the range — R55 (2007-2014) cars needed one in 2010, and F54 (2015+) cars in 2018. DVSA holds every MOT test logged from 2005 onwards, so a used example carries its full record: the result of each test, the mileage recorded at the time and every advisory the tester added. Model averages are only ever a guide — the advisories on the exact car you are buying are what show whether it has been looked after.

MOT history by MINI Clubman generation

A car's first MOT falls due three years after it was first registered, then every 12 months. These are the years that means for each MINI Clubman generation. Online MOT records run from 2005, so a car built before that shows its tests from 2005 onwards.

R55 (2007-2014)Built2007–2014First MOT2010Testsup to 17
F54 (2015+)Built2015 onwardsFirst MOT2018Testsup to 9

Test counts assume the car has been tested on time every year since its first MOT — a car tested late shows fewer. The exact number sits on that car's own record.

What a MINI Clubman MOT history shows

MOT records are written by the testing garage and submitted to the DVSA — they cannot be edited or removed by a seller.

✅

Pass and fail results

Every test since 2005, including retests, the date each test was carried out and the test station that recorded it.

📏

Mileage at each test

The odometer reading recorded by the tester — the quickest way to spot clocking or a suspicious gap in the mileage record.

⚠️

Advisory notes

Parts worn but not yet at failure level. The same advisory repeated year after year shows maintenance being deferred.

🛠️

Defect detail on failures

The exact items a car failed on, so you can ask the seller what was repaired and check the invoice for it.

MINI Clubman MOT history — common questions

How do I check the MOT history of a MINI Clubman?

Enter the registration above. The free check shows the current MOT status and expiry date straight from DVSA, and a £5.97 full report adds every test since 2005 with the result, the mileage recorded at each test and all advisory notes.

What is a MINI Clubman MOT pass rate?

Pass rates vary widely with age, mileage and servicing, so a single model figure is misleading. What matters when you are buying one car is that car's own record: enter the registration and the free check shows the current MOT status and test history straight from DVSA.

What are the most common MOT failures on a MINI Clubman?

There is no single failure that defines the MINI Clubman — MOT results track age, mileage and how well the car has been serviced. Read the advisories on the exact car you are buying: an item flagged at one MOT and never addressed almost always fails at the next test.

When is a MINI Clubman first due an MOT?

The first MOT is due three years after the vehicle was first registered, then every 12 months. A MINI Clubman under three years old will not have an MOT record yet, though its tax status and specification are still available on the free check.

Does a MINI Clubman MOT history show mileage?

Yes. Every MOT test records the odometer reading, and we compare each reading with the previous test to flag drops or unusually large gaps between tests — one of the commonest signs of clocking.
