MITSUBISHI L2002016 · 2.4L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a recent pass on 19 November 2025 at 124,296 miles. While the most recent test flagged a damaged windscreen and an offside front inner tyre worn close to the legal limit, these represent minor consumable wear rather than systemic mechanical failure. The absence of defects in the February 2025 test suggests the vehicle was in good condition mid-year, though the subsequent tyre advisory indicates a need for closer monitoring of wheel alignment or suspension wear. The mileage accumulation is significant for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 12,430 miles per year. The data shows a notable increase of nearly 13,000 miles between the March 2024 and November 2025 tests. This high usage pattern suggests the vehicle has been used regularly for work or long-distance travel, which typically accelerates the wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushes, and braking systems. The consistency of the mileage entries indicates a vehicle in active service rather than one that has sat idle for long periods. A prospective buyer should focus on the steering and suspension components during a physical inspection. The February 2023 test at 83,746 miles identified slight wear or play in the lower steering column universal joint. Although no subsequent failures recorded this specific issue, the high mileage and the recent tyre wear on the edge suggest that the steering geometry or suspension components may require attention. Checking for play in the steering rack and inspecting the condition of the front suspension bushes and ball joints is advisable. The history also highlights minor compliance issues, such as the non-conforming registration plates and headlight adjustments noted in March 2024. While these are non-mechanical, they reflect a pattern of minor upkeep requirements. Given the high mileage, a thorough check of the brake discs, calipers, and exhaust system is necessary to ensure that the increased usage has not led to excessive corrosion or component fatigue.
