2004 Mitsubishi Shogun Sport Warrior TD 2.5L Heavy oil · AEZ 5031

The 2004 Mitsubishi Shogun Sport Warrior TD's roadworthiness status appears stable based on the most recent MOT test on 2022-05-18 at 154,315 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. This follows a failed test four days earlier at 154,275 miles with no recorded defects, suggesting a possible minor issue rectified promptly. The vehicle had previously failed in 2019 at 147,660 miles but passed in 2018 at 146,566 miles. The mileage pattern indicates typical usage for a vehicle of its age. With 154,315 miles recorded over nearly 22 years, the average annual mileage is approximately 7,014 miles, which aligns with expected usage. There is a notable gap between 2018 and 2019, with the vehicle covering around 1,094 miles in roughly 15 months. Similarly, between 2019 and 2022, it accumulated about 6,655 miles over nearly three years, suggesting periods of lighter use or possible storage. Given the MOT history, it would be prudent for a buyer to inspect the vehicle's suspension, brakes, and structural integrity in person. Although the 2022 tests did not reveal significant issues, the 2019 failure without recorded defects warrants closer examination. Specifically, checking for any signs of wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as well as inspecting for structural rust or corrosion, would be advisable. Additionally, verifying the condition of consumables like tyres and wiper blades, which are subject to wear, would provide a comprehensive understanding of the vehicle's current state. The absence of detailed defect records in the failed tests limits a more precise assessment of recurring problems. Nonetheless, the stable trend indicated by the recent passed test suggests that, overall, the vehicle has been well-maintained, with no evidence of severe or worsening mechanical issues.
