2009 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3L Petrol · DN59 AFX

The 2009 Mitsubishi Colt has no recorded defects in its most recent MOT test on 2023-11-20 at 124,850 miles, indicating a stable maintenance trend. However, the absence of defects in all six recorded tests—spanning 2021 to 2023—suggests the vehicle has consistently met roadworthiness standards. The lack of advisories or critical failures implies no urgent mechanical risks, though the two-year gap since the last MOT raises questions about ongoing compliance. Mileage progression shows an average annual increase of 7,344 miles, aligning with the vehicle’s 17-year age. The 2021-11-17 test at 102,687 miles and subsequent 2022-11-22 test at 114,356 miles reflect steady usage, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity. The MOT history is sparse but clean, with no recurring issues or structural concerns. This pattern suggests the previous owner prioritized basic maintenance to meet legal requirements, though deeper mechanical scrutiny is advised. A buyer should inspect suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, for wear given the vehicle’s age. Brake discs and calipers warrant attention, as even minor corrosion or binding could compromise safety. The exhaust system and underbody should be checked for rust, as corrosion is common in older models. While the MOT records show no faults, the absence of detailed technical findings means a hands-on inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’sTrue condition.
