Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to high mileage, but the consistent MOT pass record is encouraging. Ensure a full service history is present to justify the 100,000-mile milestone.
Given that this vehicle has just surpassed the 100,000-mile threshold, your primary focus should be the service history. Specifically, check if the cambelt (timing belt) and water pump have been replaced, as these are critical maintenance items for this engine at this mileage.
Negotiate based on the high mileage and check for any signs of suspension wear or clutch slip, which can become more prevalent in diesel SUVs after six years of heavy use. Ask for proof of recent tyre replacements, as the 2022 MOT highlighted significant wear on both front tyres.
The 1798cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency on longer journeys, offering relatively good fuel economy for a compact SUV. However, at 100,000 miles, you should budget for more frequent maintenance of consumables like brakes, suspension components, and potentially the DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter).
Insurance groups for the ASX vary, but expect mid-range premiums. Tax and maintenance costs will be standard for a diesel vehicle of this age. We estimate an annual running cost of approximately £1,400-£1,700, depending on your annual mileage and driving style.
Pay close attention to the tyres and braking system. The MOT history shows a pattern of advisory notices regarding worn tyres (2022) and thinning brake pads (2020, 2021). Ensure the current set of tyres has plenty of tread and that the braking system feels responsive.
Additionally, inspect the underside for any signs of corrosion and check the engine bay for any oil leaks. Since the 2022 MOT noted a nail in the offside rear tyre, check the overall condition of the rubber to ensure no other punctures or sidewall damage have occurred.
This 2016 Mitsubishi ASX diesel is a high-mileage example that has reached the 100,431-mile mark as of July 2026. While it has maintained a clean record of MOT passes since 2019, the mileage has increased significantly in recent years. The vehicle appears to have been used regularly, which is typical for this 1.8L diesel engine variant.
While specific aggregate data for this exact model is unavailable, the Mitsubishi ASX is generally regarded as a robust, mechanically straightforward SUV.
