2019 Mitsubishi L200 2.4L Diesel · DV19 OFY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in consumable upkeep. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 42,234 miles resulted in a pass, it flagged all four tyres as being close to the legal limit with specific inner edge wear. This indicates a persistent alignment issue or suspension geometry fault that remains unaddressed, contrasting with the clean records seen in 2022 and 2024. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. There is a significant gap in recorded data between April 2022 (18,894 miles) and April 2023 (26,798 miles), where the vehicle covered nearly 8,000 miles in a year, followed by a more relaxed pace of 5,000 miles leading up to the 2024 test. The low annual mileage suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods, which can sometimes lead to dry rot in rubber components or seized brakes despite low mechanical wear. A buyer must inspect the front suspension and steering components to address the recurring inner tyre wear noted in both 2023 and 2025. The tester should check control arm bushes, tie rod ends, and ball for play that likely causes the uneven tread patterns. Given the 2023 failure regarding headlamp aim and defective stop lamps, a thorough check of the electrical housing and light alignment is necessary to ensure the previous repairs were permanent rather than temporary fixes.
