MITSUBISHI PAJERO1991 · 2.5L DIESEL

The 1991 Mitsubishi Pajero has no recorded MOT failures in its history, with the most recent entry dated 2008-08-06 (116,189 miles). This suggests the vehicle has not undergone an MOT test for over 15 years, raising concerns about its current roadworthiness and compliance with safety standards. The lack of recent testing makes it impossible to assess its condition against modern requirements or identify emerging issues. The earliest MOT entry from 2005-07-20 notes minor oil misting on both front shock absorbers (2.7.3), a non-critical defect that was not repeated in subsequent tests. No other defects were recorded between 2005 and 2008, indicating a period of stable performance. However, the absence of data after 2008 means there is no evidence to confirm whether this issue was resolved or if new problems arose. The vehicle’s mileage of 116,189 miles over 35 years equates to approximately 3,320 miles per year, which is unusually low for its age. This could imply long periods of inactivity or minimal use, increasing the risk of component degradation from lack of operation. Parts such as seals, gaskets, and electrical systems may have deteriorated due to stagnation, even if the car appears visually sound. The trend in MOT records shows no worsening issues, but the lack of recent testing prevents a full evaluation.
