2005 Mitsubishi Grandis 2.4L Petrol · 8771 KM

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-11-14 at 103,114 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the pattern of two consecutive failures in 2024-11-07 (95,679 miles) and 2023-11-10 (89,092 miles) without recorded defects suggests potential inconsistencies in testing or minor issues resolved prior to the latest pass. The absence of structural, suspension, or braking defects in the most recent test implies the car has been maintained to a baseline standard, though the prior failures warrant scrutiny for unresolved underlying concerns. The vehicle’s mileage of 103,114 miles at 21 years old equates to approximately 4,910 miles annually, significantly below average for its age. This low usage could indicate infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like the battery, fluids, and rubber seals. The MOT records show consistent annual testing intervals, with no gaps exceeding 12 months, suggesting a regular maintenance routine. However, the lack of defects in the latest test does not confirm the absence of wear in high-mileage components, as low mileage can mask issues like corrosion or seized mechanisms. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these are common in older vehicles with low mileage. The absence of brake-related defects in the latest test is reassuring, but the prior failures without recorded issues highlight the need to verify brake disc condition and caliper functionality. Structural integrity should also be assessed, particularly for rust in areas prone to moisture ingress. While the MOT history shows no major faults, the recurring failures without documentation suggest the vehicle may require a thorough mechanical check to confirm itsTrue condition.
