2009 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3L Petrol · AF09 HWW

The roadworthiness status of this Mitsubishi Colt is currently stable, evidenced by a clean pass recorded on July 22, 2025 at 87,506 miles. This latest test follows a straightforward pass on August 8, 2024, which immediately succeeded a administrative or rectification failure on August 7, 2024. The maintenance trend reflects an absence of recurring mechanical faults across the available testing window, though the complete lack of logged advisories across all five recorded tests requires careful physical verification to ensure defects were not simply omitted rather than absent. The vehicle has accumulated 87,506 miles over approximately seventeen years, yielding an average of roughly 5,147 miles annually. This low mileage accumulation rate indicates light usage, yet the record shows consistent annual presentation for testing every August from 2022 through 2024, followed by a July test in 2025. There are no suspicious gaps in the chronological test dates, confirming that the vehicle remained taxed and tested through the post-pandemic period without prolonged storage laying dormant. Prospective buyers must perform a thorough physical inspection of consumable items and structural components despite the clean test history. Low mileage use frequently accelerates corrosion on underbody elements, brake discs, and exhaust systems due to short urban journeys preventing proper component operating temperatures. A rigorous inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and the structural integrity of the chassis sills is essential to detect any hidden degradation that escaped tester observation during the recent pass certificates.
