2010 Mitsubishi L200 2.5L Diesel · A25 WEA

The Mitsubishi L200 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 18 November 2025 at 138,227 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Three consecutive annual tests from November 2022 through November 2025 also passed cleanly, showing no recurring advisories or escalating mechanical concerns across that period. The recorded mileage of 138,227 at the 2025 test equates to roughly 8,600 miles per year since first registration in 2010, which is typical for a light commercial 4x4 of this age. Annual increments stayed consistent: 123,029 miles in November 2022, 126,942 in November 2023, 131,011 in November 2024, and 138,227 in November 2025. The only anomaly is a failed test on 26 October 2022 at 123,018 miles, logged with no defects recorded, followed by a pass eighteen days later at 123,029 miles. That pattern suggests an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the owner corrected it promptly. Given the clean record with no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion, the buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the chassis. Mitsubishi L200 models of this generation are prone to chassis rail rust and rear crossmember corrosion where road salt exposure occurs. Verify the underbody structural integrity and check for any welded repairs not captured by the MOT. Drivetrain components such as the propeller shaft UJ joints and front differential should be assessed for play, as 138,000 miles on a part-time 4x4 drivetrain invites wear not always visible in a static test. The absence of brake or tyre advisories implies consumables were maintained, but confirm pad thickness and tyre sidewall condition before purchase.
