2012 Mitsubishi Colt 1.1L Petrol · AF62 NVZ

The Mitsubishi Colt presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 9 July 2025 at 83,877 miles, with the official record showing no defects logged. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, as every test from 2022 through 2025 resulted in a pass with no advisories or recorded faults. The vehicle carries a clean five-year test profile with no recurring mechanical or structural concerns flagged by DVSA testers. Recorded mileage sits at 83,877 against a 2012 build, equating to roughly 5,991 miles per year and confirming light use for its age. The odometer moved from 65,636 on 8 August 2022 to 70,921 on 3 August 2023, then 76,365 on 16 July 2024, and 83,877 on 9 July 2025. Annual accumulation held near 6,000 miles with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps, suggesting steady low-intensity private use rather than fleet or motorway cycles. The duplicate 9 July 2025 entries show a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects listed, indicating an administrative correction rather than a mechanical fault. Buyers should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and subframe corrosion given the car's fourteen years, as MOT cleansheets do not certify component life beyond test day. Given the absent advisory history, previous owners appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, though low mileage raises the risk of perished rubber, sticking calipers or moisture-driven structural rust from standing periods. A pre-purchase check beneath the sills and wheel arches remains prudent before completion.
