2017 Mitsubishi ASX 1.6L Petrol · YM17 ACO

The 2022‑11‑29 MOT at 38,521 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the Mitsubishi ASX remains roadworthy at the time of testing. The maintenance record shows a stable trend, as each successive test – the 2021‑12‑06 pass at 34,764 miles and the 2022‑11‑29 pass – reported zero failures, indicating consistent upkeep without major mechanical interventions. Mileage accumulation is modest; the vehicle increased from 34,764 miles in December 2021 to 38,521 miles by November 2022, a gain of 3,757 miles over roughly eleven months, which translates to about 4,100 miles per year. This low annual mileage, combined with the vehicle’s nine‑year age, suggests light usage or extended periods of inactivity, and the clean record between tests points to minimal wear on consumables. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or corrosion, examine the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and check the structural integrity of the chassis and wheel arches for rust, especially given the vehicle’s age. Verification of tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and exhaust emission levels is also advisable, as these items often reveal hidden issues despite low mileage. The duplicate entry for 2021‑12‑06 – a failure recorded at the same mileage as a subsequent pass – should be clarified with the DVLA, and a physical inspection should confirm that no underlying defects were missed, ensuring that the apparent stability of the record reflects genuine mechanical health.
