Description
A genuine and reluctant private sale of our black 2016 MINI Cooper diesel, registration AP16 SNU.
In the most desirable black over black colour combo!
The car has covered approximately 85,000 miles and has had only one previous owner. We bought it in February 2019 and have owned and enjoyed it for over seven years.
The only reason for selling is the arrival of a new baby so a bigger car is needed. There is no mechanical reason for the sale, and we will genuinely be sad to see it go.
The economical 1.5-litre diesel engine regularly returns over 40 mpg in normal driving and is particularly good on longer journeys. Annual road tax is just 35, making this a very affordable car to run.
The car has always been serviced and maintained by our trusted local garage and has wanted for nothing during our ownership. Any servicing or maintenance required has been dealt with promptly.
The current MOT is valid until 6 May 2027. The latest MOT was completed in April 2026 at 83,912 miles.
Features include:
Bluetooth connectivity
DAB digital radio
USB audio connection
Cruise control
Parking sensors
Economical 1.5-litre diesel engine
35 annual road tax
Long MOT
Only one previous owner
The MINI starts, drives and performs as it should. It is comfortable on the motorway, easy to park around town and still has the responsive, enjoyable handling that MINIs are known for.
The interior has the distinctive MINI design and remains a pleasant and comfortable place to be. Bluetooth, DAB and USB connectivity make it easy to connect a phone or listen to music, while cruise control is useful on longer journeys.
As expected with a car of this age and mileage, there are a few age-related marks around the bodywork. The front bumper has also faded. This is cosmetic and has never affected our use or enjoyment of the car.
We have described the condition honestly and would rather buyers know about these points before viewing. It is not being advertised as a flawless showroom example, but it is a dependable, economical and well-maintained everyday car with a straightforward ownership history.
The mileage may increase slightly as the car remains in occasional use.
