2004 Mitsubishi Shogun 3.2L Diesel · AY53 LMM

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, maintaining a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on November 2025 at 110,349 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This consistency across five annual tests dating back to 2021 indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the accumulation of significant mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,016 miles per annum. Between November 2021 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 7,517 miles, representing a consistent usage pattern of roughly 1,880 miles per year. This low-frequency use typically reduces wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and brakes, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or perished seals which are not always captured in a standard MOT test. Despite the clean digital history, a prospective buyer must focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and underbody. Mitsubishi Shog of this era are prone to significant corrosion in the sills, wheel arches, and suspension mounting points which may remain hidden until they become structural weaknesses. Given the low mileage, the inspector should also check for seized brake calipers or perished suspension bushes, as these components often fail through age rather than high mileage. Testing the brake discs for surface pitting is also advisable if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods between tests.
