MITSUBISHI CARISMA MIRAGE DI-D1.9L Diesel

The Mitsubishi Carisma Mirage DI-D presents a stable and reassuring roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 1 February 2026 at 205,185 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the four prior annual tests likewise closed with clean sheets. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the chain, so the vehicle shows no worsening pattern and no recurring defects across the five-year window. Mileage advanced from 150,322 in May 2021 to 205,185 by February 2026, an average of roughly 11,000 miles per year. The longest gap falls between the May 2022 test at 162,496 miles and the July 2023 test at 179,812 miles, a fourteen-month interval adding only 17,316 miles. The record offers no basis to flag rapid accumulation or neglected lay-up; the odometer simply reflects steady private or light commercial use. Because the DVSA history carries zero advisories, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable items the test does not deeply measure. At 205,185 miles the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness warrant physical checks for fatigue. Examine the subframe and sills for corrosion that a pass without advisories might miss on a visual walk-round. Previous keepers clearly kept the car to a test-compliant standard, yet a clean MOT is not a mechanical warranty. Verify the cambelt and diesel injector service against the maker schedule, and confirm the clutch and turbo response on a road drive before purchase.
