2008 Mitsubishi Colt 1.5L Petrol · HT08 AHA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, the September 2026 test at 22,583 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming a stable maintenance trend that shows no new or worsening issues after the brief brake binding noted in 2023. The 2024 wiper blade advisory remains the only consumable fault, and the 2019 tyre advisories have not recurred, indicating the car has been kept in a generally sound condition. Mileage accumulation has been exceptionally low for an 18‑year‑old car, averaging roughly 1,250 miles per year across the record, with the most recent year adding only 391 miles between the June 2025 and June 2026 tests. This pattern suggests light use or prolonged periods of storage, and the data is sparse only in the early years where the first test occurred at 8,310 miles in 2012, after which the mileage rose steadily but modestly. A buyer should inspect the front wiper blade for wear, check the rear service brake for binding, and examine both front and rear tyres for cracking or perishing tread, as these were the recurring advisories. Additionally, a visual check of suspension bushes, brake discs for uneven wear, and the underbody for corrosion will reveal any age‑related degradation not captured by the MOT advisories.
