Our Verdict
Highly recommended. This red Mitsubishi ASX presents as an exceptionally well-maintained example with a remarkably clean MOT record and low mileage for its age.
Given the lack of defects in the MOT history, your primary focus should be on the service record. Ensure the diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been maintained through regular motorway driving or appropriate servicing, as low-mileage diesels can sometimes suffer from carbon buildup.
Verify that the oil changes have been performed at the manufacturer's recommended intervals. Because this vehicle has an unusually clean history, any gap in the service book would be the only significant red flag to negotiate on price.
The 1.6L diesel engine is designed for efficiency, offering competitive MPG for a vehicle of this size. Tax and insurance will be moderate, falling into mid-range brackets typical for a family-sized crossover.
Maintenance costs are expected to be low given the vehicle's current condition. Expect standard wear-and-tear items like tyres and brake pads to be the primary expenses, with an overall affordable annual budget.
While the MOT history shows no defects, always check the red paintwork for any fading or clear-coat failure, which can occur on older red vehicles. Inspect the tyre treads and date stamps, as low-mileage cars can sometimes have tyres that are legally deep but aged and hardened.
Check the cabin for wear and tear consistent with 66,000 miles. Specifically, look at the driver's seat bolster and steering wheel for excessive wear, which should be minimal given the recorded mileage.
This 2016 diesel ASX has covered just 66,042 miles since registration, which is significantly lower than the typical average for a vehicle of this vintage. The MOT history is exemplary, showing four consecutive passes with no defects recorded since 2022. It represents a stable, low-risk purchase for a buyer seeking a practical compact SUV.
The Mitsubishi ASX is generally regarded as a sturdy and dependable compact SUV, though specific aggregate data for this generation is limited.
