2015 MINI Clubman MOT pass rate: 83.3% (4,245 tests)
Is the 2015 Clubman getting worse?
Pass rate of 2015-registered cars across recent test years:
| Test year | Pass rate | |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 85.1% +4.5 vs same-age |
|
| 2024 | 83.6% +5.1 vs same-age |
|
| 2025 | 81.3% +4.3 vs same-age |
The raw rate normally falls as cars age. The “vs same-age” figure compares this cohort with all UK cars registered in the same year, so normal ageing is not mistaken for a bad model year.

What mileage is too high for a 2015 Clubman?
