Summary

Plate AC0889HH check

This page is a short report on the car with plate AC0889HH — MINI Hatch 2002, VIN WMWRA31030TA15322, mileage 260k km, petrol engine, manual gearbox and an asking price of $3,800. A plate check helps to quickly identify the car, see its market position and registration history before buying.

Insight: The car is over 15 years old — running costs are higher; the key inspection points are the body and anti-corrosion treatment. High mileage — service history and the condition of the engine and gearbox are decisive.

Market position

Based on current data, similar offers are available for the MINI Hatch 2002 (same model, year ±2). Market prices range from $3,720 to $6,500 with a median of $4,900, and this offer is below the market: 22% under the median. This is not always a problem, but such a difference deserves extra attention to the car's condition, documents, registration history and value guidance.

Insight: The price is below most similar listings — condition, trim or history usually explain the gap.

History & registrations

The report includes registration data: owners — 3, transfers — 3, plate changes — 1, years in the registry — 3. The latest recorded operation: Re-registration on 01.11.2023. This data helps to understand the car’s legal history before buying.

Insight: A moderate number of owners (3) — typical for the car’s age. The plate was changed 1 time — such changes can split the history into separate episodes.
