2014 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.3L Diesel · LR64 MYW

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy certificate having passed its most recent MOT in April 2026 at 58,747 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable following a period of recorded advisories in 2024. While the 2025 and 2026 tests showed no mechanical defects, the child seat obstructing the adult belt inspection during the latest test suggests a minor procedural oversight by the owner rather than a mechanical failure of the vehicle. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a gap of 5,767 miles recorded between April 2025 and April 2026. This low annual mileage often indicates less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, but the long intervals between service points can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components, which is consistent with the perishing tyre sidewalls noted in the 2024 record. A physical inspection should focus specifically on the components flagged during the April 2024 test at 47,501 miles. The tester previously identified thin front brake pads, worn discs, and corroded rear coil springs. A buyer must verify that these specific suspension parts have been replaced and that the corrosion on the rear springs has not progressed to structural failure. Additionally, given the history of perishing on the nearside rear tyre, the age and condition of all tyres should be checked for cracking, as low mileage often masks rubber dry rot that occurs before the tread wears out.
