2004 MITSUBISHI GRANDIS2.4L PETROL

The most recent MOT for this 2004 Mitsubishi Grandis was recorded on 2018-11-29, with 135,768 miles. No defects were noted at that time, but the vehicle has not undergone an MOT since then, leaving its current condition unverified. This gap in testing is a significant concern, as critical safety and mechanical issues may have developed without inspection. The MOT history reveals a pattern of minor but recurring issues. In 2017-10-16, the vehicle failed due to a nearside front shock absorber with a light oil mist (2.7.3), an inadequately supported exhaust system (7.1.1), and a non-working nearside front position lamp (1.1.A.3b). These defects suggest potential wear in suspension components, exhaust integrity, and lighting systems. A prior 2015 MOT noted a slightly corroded nearside front brake pipe (3.6.B.2c), indicating early signs of corrosion in braking infrastructure. While the 2018 MOT showed no defects, the absence of recent testing means the trend since then is unclear. The 2017 failures were addressed by 2018, as no similar issues were recorded, but this does not confirm long-term resolution. The vehicle’s mileage of 135,768 miles over 22 years aligns with typical usage for its age, averaging ~6,171 miles annually.
