2016 Mitsubishi ASX 2.3L Diesel · EY16 NXJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean MOT pass in April 2026 at 33,596 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, despite a brief failure just one month prior. That March failure at 33,577 miles identified a non-functional offside side repeater, an insecure front track rod end ball joint dust cover, and perishing rear tyres. The fact that these defects were rectified for the April test indicates the owner is reactive to safety-critical failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,360 miles per year. Between March 2023 and March 2024, the car covered 3,496 miles, while it saw a larger gap of 5,384 miles between 2024 and 2025. This low usage suggests the vehicle was likely used for short trips or sat for extended periods. However, low mileage often leads to the accelerated degradation of rubber components and tyres, which is consistent with the recent report of cracked and perished sidew rubber. A buyer should physically inspect the condition of all tyres,, as the 2026 failure highlights a vulnerability to age-related dry rot rather than tread wear. The front suspension should be checked for play or boot leaks to ensure the previous track rod end replacement addressed the underlying issue properly. Given the low mileage, it is also vital to check for brake disc corrosion and seized calipers, as vehicles driven infrequently frequently suffer from surface rust and sticking components within the braking system.
