2020 Mitsubishi Shogun 2.4L Diesel · MX20 AFF

The 2020 Mitsubishi Shogun presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2026-02-10 at 58,109 miles recording a pass and no defects. The prior test on 2026-02-04 at 57,786 miles failed, though no specific defects were noted, suggesting a technical or procedural issue rather than a mechanical failure. Subsequent tests from 2023 to 2025 consistently passed with no recorded faults, indicating the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards. The absence of recurring issues in the MOT history implies the owner addressed any problems promptly, though the recent failure without explanation warrants further inquiry. Mileage progression shows a gradual increase from 13,327 miles in 2023 to 58,109 miles in 2026, averaging approximately 9,685 miles annually. A notable jump from 16,735 miles in 2024 to 37,016 miles in 2025 suggests a period of intensified use, which could accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust systems. The lack of defects in later tests implies these elements were managed, but the rapid accumulation of miles may have strained consumables such as tyres or fluid systems. The MOT records are otherwise clean, reflecting consistent maintenance. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension for signs of wear, particularly coil springs and bushings, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as higher mileage often exacerbates these issues. Structural integrity, including underbody rust or panel damage, is critical to assess, as corrosion can develop unnoticed in older vehicles. The absence of recorded faults does not eliminate risks, so a physical inspection by a qualified mechanic is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition beyond the MOT data.
