2020 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1.5L Petrol · LT20 AXD

The Mitsubishi Eclipse presents a stable roadworthiness profile with no recorded defects across its test history. In the November 2025 examination at 33,906 miles, the DVSA tester passed the vehicle with a clean sheet. Prior checks in February 2025 at 30,374 miles, February 2024 at 24,488 miles, and February 2023 at 19,215 miles each returned passes without advisories. The maintenance trend is steady and shows no worsening mechanical or structural concerns. Recorded mileages indicate light annual use for a six-year-old car. The odometer advanced from 19,215 in February 2023 to 24,488 by February 2024, then to 30,374 in February 2025, and reached 33,906 by November 2025. That equates to roughly 5,200 to 5,900 miles per year, with a slight slowdown in the final nine-month interval. No testing gaps appear; the owner adhered to annual MOT cycles. Such low accumulation suggests gentle driving or extended standing periods rather than neglected mileage. A clean MOT ledger does not exempt the buyer from physical scrutiny. Long idle spells can degrade suspension bushes, allow surface corrosion on brake discs, and cause tyre sidewall cracking despite adequate tread. The previous keeper sustained test compliance, yet absence of advisories may simply reflect low exposure rather than intensive inspection of wear items. The buyer should inspect coil springs for fracturing, calipers for binding after storage, and underbody structural members for rust before completion of sale.
