2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1.5L Petrol · DC68 WDA

The Mitsubishi Eclipse presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 January 2026 at 69,885 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior passes also carried clean sheets. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-entry history, so the vehicle shows no worsening or recurring defect pattern across its recorded life. Annual mileage sits close to the typical 9,984 per year for a 2019 car, but the record exposes an irregular usage profile. The 22 February 2023 test logged 39,177 miles, then the 6 February 2024 test showed only 48,419 miles, a rise of roughly 9,200 over near-twelve months. A near-identical 48,637 miles appears on 16 January 2025, meaning under 220 miles accrued across eleven months. By 12 January 2026 the odometer jumped to 69,885, adding over 21,000 miles in a single year. The 2024 entry also lists a failed test on the same date and mileage as the pass with no defects cited, suggesting an administrative or process anomaly rather than a mechanical rejection. The clean MOT slate gives no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion to chase. A buyer should still confirm in person that the long low-use period through 2024 did not allow brake calipers to seize or tyres to degrade from standing. The sudden 2025 to 2026 mileage surge warrants a check of fluid intervals, clutch wear, and drivetrain condition that a pass test would not expose. Given the sparse but fault-free record, previous owners appear to have kept the car to basic statutory standards without neglect surfacing. Inspect underneath for early structural rust and verify service history against the odd mileage steps before purchase.
