2007 Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0L Petrol · GL07 CNC

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently failing, as evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 2025-08-04 at 112,829 miles, which failed on a nearside front anti-roll bar linkage. This indicates a serious structural weakness that has not been addressed since the previous inspection. The maintenance trend is deteriorating because multiple failures occurred within a short period, specifically failing twice on the rear brake disc and numerous other components, suggesting a lack of preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern reflects a significant gap in record-keeping, as the vehicle moved from 96,176 miles in February 2023 to 112,829 miles in August 2025, a period of roughly 16,653 miles without any recorded MOT results. This gap implies that the owner has likely been absent for over a year, leading to the accumulation of wear on the drivetrain and suspension, which is a common cause for such severe failure in older vehicles. Given the recurring faults including corroded brake pipes, worn brake discs, and structural damage to anti-roll bars and steering components, a buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to identify the extent of structural rust, the condition of the suspension bushings, and the integrity of the brake discs. The presence of exhaust emissions issues and a missing section in the exhaust system further confirms that the vehicle's mechanical integrity has degraded beyond acceptable limits, necessitating immediate professional assessment.
