2009 Mitsubishi Colt 1.1L Petrol · LN58 KUS

This Mitsubishi Colt is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 March 2026 at 187,223 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. The vehicle has a pattern of passing its tests promptly, though the records show immediate re-tests on 24 March 2026 and 17 March 2025. The lack of listed defects during these failures suggests administrative errors or minor issues resolved instantly on-site. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age. It has covered approximately 1,027 miles between the March 2025 test at 186,651 miles and the March 2026 test at 187,223 miles. This low annual usage over the last two years contrasts with the overall average of 11,013 miles per year, suggesting the car has spent more time stationary recently. The MOT history is unusually clean for a seventeen year old vehicle with nearly 190,000 miles. There are no recorded advisories for corrosion, suspension bushes, or brake wear across the last three years of testing. Such a sparse record is atypical for a high-mileage Japanese city car of this era, which usually shows signs of underbody rust or worn coil springs. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components. The absence of any flagged defects in the DVSA record does not guarantee the absence of wear. Focus on checking for structural corrosion and the condition of the brake discs and tyres, as these consumables are likely due for replacement given the high total mileage regardless of the clean test sheets.
