2017 Mitsubishi L200 2.4L Diesel · G23 RBO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with no defects recorded in its most recent 2025 MOT at 126,123 miles. The maintenance trend remains stable, as all subsequent tests from 2022 to 2025 show no recurring issues, despite a 2022 failure at 79,078 miles. The absence of defects in the last four consecutive MOTs suggests consistent upkeep, though the 2022 failure—without recorded details—warrants cautious scrutiny. No structural corrosion, brake system faults, or exhaust emissions issues were flagged in the latest test, indicating the vehicle has met legal standards. The mileage progression reveals a sharp increase from 79,078 miles in 2022 to 103,673 miles by 2023, adding 24,595 miles within 12 months. This rapid accumulation exceeds the average annual 14,014 miles, implying heavier usage or frequent operation. Subsequent tests in 2024 and 2025 show more moderate growth, but the high mileage raises concerns about wear on consumables like tyres and suspension components. The lack of advisories in the MOT record does not preclude underlying issues, particularly in high-mileage vehicles. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as high mileage often accelerates such wear. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven scoring or binding, while the exhaust system requires scrutiny for rust or leaks. Corrosion in body seams or underbody panels may also be present, given the vehicle’s age and usage. These components, though not flagged in MOT records, are critical for long-term reliability and safety.
