2007 Mitsubishi L200 2.5L Diesel · DV57 JJO

Based on the official DVSA MOT records, this 2007 Mitsubishi L200 presents a stable and consistently clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test, conducted on 23 June 2025 at 101,237 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This outcome is not an isolated result. The vehicle has passed every single MOT since at least February 2022, with no advisories or failures noted in the provided history. The maintenance trend is demonstrably stable, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a thoroughly roadworthy condition by its recent keepers. The mileage pattern reveals a notably low-usage profile with a significant gap in the record. At roughly 19 years old with 101,237 miles, the annual average is approximately 5,328 miles, which is very low for a working pick-up. The data shows a clear period of dormancy or extremely light use between the February 2022 test at 76,466 miles and the June 2023 test at 76,635 miles, a span of over fourteen months yielding only 169 miles. Usage then accelerated markedly, with the vehicle covering 15,958 miles between June 2023 and June 2024, and a further 8,644 miles in the year leading to the June 2025 test. This suggests a change from a lightly used vehicle to one covering more typical annual mileages recently. Despite the clean MOT history, the mileage gap and the vehicle's age warrant a focused physical inspection. A buyer should pay close attention to components that deteriorate with time and lack of use, not just mileage. Inspect all rubber suspension bushes, ball joints, and shock absorbers for perishing or cracking, as prolonged standing can cause rubber to dry out. Check the underside thoroughly for structural corrosion, particularly on the chassis rails, crossmembers, and around mounting points, as surface rust can develop on a stationary vehicle. Examine the condition of all brake discs, pads, and flexible hoses, as brakes can seize and corrode during periods of inactivity. Finally, verify the condition of the tyres, including the spare, looking for sidewall cracking due to age, even if tread depth remains adequate.
