It's a brake pad wear sensor: https://www.google.com/search?q=mini...ake+pad+sensor

 

^^That^^ It's for the front.

You saved $20 off a brake job, all you had to do was buy the car!

 

You should check the boot to see what other parts the previous owner neglected to use. Enjoy the new car.

 

+1 Yes, you might have more finds. Check the boot and the secrets glove box, the dash panel above the glove box.

The one shown is a front brake pad wear sensor. There is only one brake pad wear sensor on the front and it is on the front left wheel (yellow arrow). When it comes time for new front brakes, you wont need to buy a sensor now at least. The rear sensors have a different part number HERE.
