Our Verdict
Proceed with extreme caution or look elsewhere. This vehicle has a significant history of structural corrosion and suspension wear that suggests it has been worked hard and may require ongoing, expensive maintenance.
Before considering a purchase, you must inspect the chassis thoroughly. The 2024 MOT failure highlighted structural corrosion near the tank mount and body mountings; ensure these repairs were carried out to a professional standard and not just patched over. Given the recurring issues with brake pipes and prop shaft joints, a professional ramp inspection is essential to assess the current state of the undercarriage.
Negotiate heavily based on the long list of 2025 advisories, specifically the corroded brake pipes and worn prop shaft joints. These are not 'set and forget' items and will likely require replacement in the near future. Ask for receipts for any structural welding or chassis repairs, as poor-quality work here can lead to future MOT failures and safety concerns.
As a 2.5-litre diesel, this L200 will be thirsty, particularly if used for heavy towing or urban driving. You should budget for high fuel consumption and be aware that its age and emissions profile may lead to higher costs in certain clean air zones. Insurance will be in a higher group typical for a commercial vehicle of this size.
Maintenance is the primary concern. With 173,759 miles on the clock, you should expect frequent part replacements. Annual running costs, including insurance, tax, fuel, and a contingency fund for inevitable repairs, are estimated at £2,500–£3,500. This is not a vehicle to run on a tight budget.
Focus your inspection on the underside. Check the brake pipes for any signs of surface rust or 'grease' used to mask corrosion, as noted in the 2025 MOT. Test the suspension by checking for play in the leaf springs and steering components, as 'd-bush' wear has been a recurring theme in recent tests.
Verify the condition of the prop shaft joints and check for any oil leaks around the engine and differential. Ensure all electrical features, especially the ABS system and lighting, are fully functional, as these were points of failure in the 2025 test. Listen for any clunking or vibration during a test drive, which could indicate the prop shaft or suspension issues noted in the MOT history.
This 2007 Mitsubishi L200 is a high-mileage workhorse showing signs of significant age-related degradation. The MOT history reveals repeated issues with structural corrosion, brake pipe deterioration, and worn suspension components. While it passed its most recent test in October 2025, the advisory list remains long, indicating that the vehicle is in a state of constant repair.
The L200 is known as a robust work vehicle, but high-mileage examples of this generation are prone to chassis rot and suspension wear that require consistent attention.
