2017 Ssangyong Korando 2.2L Diesel · T99 EAD

The vehicle currently holds a clean bill of health, with the most recent MOT certificate issued on 01 March 2025 at 59,170 miles showing no recorded defects or advisories. This performance indicates a stable and well-maintained state, particularly given the absence of any component failures during the last inspection. The history suggests a vehicle that has been kept in good operational order, with no recurring mechanical issues or structural concerns flagged by testers over the last three years. Total mileage stands at 59,170 miles, reflecting an average annual usage of approximately 6,574 miles since the vehicle was first registered in 2017. This accumulation is consistent with typical domestic use and suggests the car has not been subjected to excessive short-trip cycles or high-mileage fleet service. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests shows a steady increase of roughly 6,800 miles, confirming the vehicle remains in regular use rather than sitting idle for extended periods, which helps prevent issues like seized brake calipers or battery degradation. While the 2024 test period saw two initial failures, the lack of recorded defects suggests these were likely administrative or minor issues rather than mechanical failures. Because the MOT record is exceptionally clean, you should focus your physical inspection on the standard consumables that do not always trigger an MOT failure until they are critically worn. Pay close attention to the condition of the suspension bushes and the thickness of the brake discs, as these components endure the most wear on a vehicle of this age and weight. Check for any signs of surface corrosion on the underside, specifically around the subframe mounting points, to ensure the structural integrity remains as sound as the test history implies.
