2013 Mitsubishi L200 2.5L Diesel · AP13 PVU

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 21 March 2022, indicating current roadworthiness. However, the maintenance trend shows some issues, particularly with the front brake pipe corrosion and windscreen damage, which were noted in the last test. These findings suggest a need for attention to these components, though they did not prevent the vehicle from passing. The vehicle's mileage of 74,233 miles over 13 years equates to approximately 5,710 miles annually, which is relatively low. This low mileage could indicate infrequent use or periods of inactivity, which might explain the absence of more significant wear on major mechanical components. Notably, the gap between the failed test on 17 March 2021 and the subsequent pass on 23 March 2021, with only a small mileage increase, suggests that the issues identified were promptly addressed. Buyers should pay particular attention to the front brake system, especially the offside front brake pipe, due to the corrosion noted in the most recent test. Additionally, the windscreen damage, while not affecting the driver's view, should be inspected for any further deterioration. The nearside rear inner tyre's cut and the offside rear tyre's wear close to the legal limit from the 2021 failure highlight the importance of regular tyre checks and replacements. Given the vehicle's age and the low mileage, it would also be prudent to examine the suspension for any signs of wear or corrosion, as these components can degrade over time without showing immediate symptoms in MOT tests.
