2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1.5L Petrol · F24 EER

The 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse remains roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 12 November 2025 at 32,988 miles, roughly eight months before the current date, returning a pass with no defects recorded. Across five consecutive examinations from May 2022 to November 2025, the vehicle cleared every assessment without a single advisory or failure. This unbroken sequence indicates consistent mechanical condition and no worsening or recurring faults across suspension, brakes, or structure. The odometer shows 32,988 miles against an eight-year lifespan, averaging roughly 4,124 miles per year. The record reveals a 3,473-mile gain between the May 2022 test at 20,896 miles and the May 2023 test at 25,286 miles, then a 1,326-mile increment to the November 2023 test at 26,612 miles after a six-month interval. Annual rises stayed below 3,500 miles through to 29,515 miles in November 2024 and the final 32,988 miles in November 2025. Such low accumulation points to light use, and the clean sparse history gives no indication of skipped consumable replacement or deferred repairs. Buyers should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's low mileage and potential for prolonged standing. The MOT data never flagged corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet moisture ingress and perished rubber can develop unseen during idle periods. A technician ought to verify exhaust emissions and check for binding calipers that short-distance driving may conceal. Previous owners evidently adhered to test schedules and addressed any required work preemptively, as no failures appear. The absence of advisories on tyres or wiper blades suggests basic upkeep was not ignored. A pre-purchase examination remains prudent to confirm fluid condition and underbody integrity absent from the certificate record.
