2016 Mitsubishi ASX 1.6L Diesel · YW65 AEL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT test on 1 July 2025 with 106,078 miles. The maintenance trend appears consistent, as the car has maintained a clean record across its last three passes. While the history shows failures in June 2024 and June 2025, the immediate passes following these tests indicate that the previous owner was proactive in rectifying any identified defects to maintain legal compliance. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a decade-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,600 miles per year. A significant period of activity is noted between December 2023 (81,386 miles) and July 2025 (106,078 miles), where the car covered over 24,000 miles. This higher rate of use suggests standard wear on consumable components such as tyres, brake pads, and suspension bushings, but the lack of advisories in the most recent test suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained during these high-mile intervals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. Given the vehicle has crossed the 100,000-mile mark, a thorough check of the suspension arm bushes, shock absorbers, and CV joints is essential. Although the MOT record does not flag recurring structural corrosion or brake issues, the buyer should inspect the underside for surface rust and test the brake calipers to ensure no degradation has developed since the July test.
