2017 Mitsubishi Shogun 3.2L Diesel · CT17 EVB

The Mitsubishi Shogun presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 11 August 2025 at 66,833 miles with zero defects recorded. This recent outcome demonstrates the vehicle currently meets all required safety and emissions standards. The maintenance trajectory remains highly stable, showing no recurring mechanical or structural failures across the documented history. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical light-to-moderate use for a nine-year-old vehicle. Between the August 2022 test at 51,429 miles and the August 2025 test at 66,833 miles, the Shogun covered 15,404 miles over three years, averaging roughly 5,135 miles annually. The recent 12-month interval between August 2024 and August 2025 saw just 5,971 miles added, indicating consistent, low-intensity usage rather than prolonged standing or high-mileage commercial work. Despite the flawless MOT record, a physical inspection remains prudent for a vehicle of this age and type. The Shogun's heavy-duty chassis and suspension components demand close scrutiny for corrosion, particularly around the subframe, brake lines, and suspension mounts, which can degrade even without triggering an MOT failure. Buyers should inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, alongside checking the brake discs and calipers for any signs of binding or uneven wear, as these components endure significant stress in off-road or towing scenarios. The single recorded failure on 7 August 2023 at 56,819 miles is notable for listing no specific defects, suggesting an administrative or procedural issue rather than a mechanical breakdown. The subsequent pass just two days later at 56,829 miles confirms the vehicle was swiftly rectified or re-presented. This pattern implies a diligent owner who addressed the issue immediately, reinforcing the overall impression of responsible vehicle care.
