MITSUBISHI SHOGUN2003 · 3.2L Diesel

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile according to the DVSA records. The most recent test on 16 October 2025 at 106,960 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a continuous sequence of clean passes dating back to at least October 2021, suggesting that the vehicle has been kept in a roadworthy condition without recurring mechanical or structural issues flagged by testers. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 23-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,650 miles per year. The data shows a steady, incremental increase in distance covered, moving from 84,488 miles in October 2021 to 106,960 miles in October 2025. This low annual usage suggests the vehicle has seen light use, which typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage counterparts. While the MOT history is clean, the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to issues related to vehicles sitting idle for extended periods. A physical inspection should focus on checking for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes, tyre sidewalls, and various engine hoses, which can degrade due to age rather than mileage. You should also check for signs of corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system, as these are common areas for age-related degradation on older 4x4 vehicles. Given the lack of recorded advisories for brake wear or tyre tread depth, the vehicle appears well-maintained from a regulatory standpoint. However, you should manually verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as well as the integrity of the chassis, to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed between official inspection intervals.
