2022 Ssangyong Rexton 2.2L Diesel · M7 EHG

This SSangYong Rexton has demonstrated a stable roadworthiness trend over the past two MOT cycles, with the most recent test on 2026-02-24 confirming full compliance without any defects. The absence of advisories or recurring failures in the last two tests suggests the vehicle has not experienced any persistent mechanical or structural issues. However, the duplicate entry for 2025-02-26—where the test was initially failed before being retested and passed—indicates a minor administrative oversight rather than a mechanical concern, though it warrants confirmation that the retest addressed any genuine concerns. The recorded mileage of 47,342 miles over approximately four years equates to an average of around 11,836 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage patterns for this age of vehicle. There are no evident gaps or abrupt spikes in mileage accumulation between tests, though the sparse MOT history limits deeper insight into wear patterns. The most recent test occurred just six months ago, which is within the standard MOT validity period, though buyers should verify whether the vehicle has undergone any interim servicing beyond legal requirements. Given the clean MOT history, priority should be given to inspecting high-wear components that often fail without pre-warning, such as suspension bushes and coil springs for excessive play or corrosion, particularly in the rear where binding brakes were not flagged but could develop over time. The brakes themselves show no history of failure, but the lack of advisories means a thorough check of caliper binding, disc runout, and pad thickness is essential. Structural integrity should be assessed for signs of rust penetration in wheel arches, sills, and underbody, especially if the vehicle has spent time in wet or salted environments. Finally, verify the integrity of exhaust emissions systems, as no failures were recorded but catalytic converter efficiency can degrade silently.
