2007 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3L Petrol · FP07 POF

The Mitsubishi Colt passed its most recent MOT on 11 April 2025 at 101,777 miles with no defects recorded, indicating current roadworthiness is acceptable. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with every pass and fail showing no advisories or recorded faults. The repeated test entries on the same dates in 2023 and 2025 reflect administrative re-tests rather than mechanical recurrence, and no worsening pattern emerges from the data. The recorded mileage of 101,777 at the 2025 test equates to roughly 5,357 miles per year across the vehicle's 19-year life, which is low for a 2007 car. Between the 14 April 2023 test at 90,638 miles and the 18 April 2024 test at 95,291 miles the car covered only 4,653 miles, then added 6,486 miles to the April 2025 figure. Such low annual use suggests prolonged standing periods are likely, which can accelerate rubber perishing and corrosion even where the MOT shows a clean sheet. The DVSA record flags no specific suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural integrity issues at any stage. A clean history with zero advisories on a vehicle of this age and mileage implies previous owners kept basic statutory testing current, though the duplicate fail entries on 14 April 2023 and 11 April 2025 with no defects suggest clerical or presentation errors at the testing station rather than owner neglect. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody corrosion, brake caliper condition, and tyre sidewall cracking given the low-use profile. Standing time hides moisture damage that MOT passes at 90,638 and 101,777 miles would not necessarily expose. Verify service records independently before purchase.
