2018 Ssangyong Korando 2.2L Diesel · NL68 ADU

The 2018 Ssangyong Korando demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-10-22 assessment at 94,184 miles. The absence of failures or advisories across the 2021–2025 period suggests consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. However, the vehicle has not undergone an MOT since October 2025, and the current date of 2026-07-22 means it is now over 12 months past its last valid test, raising immediate compliance concerns. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging 11,773 miles annually. The recorded tests span irregular intervals, with the longest gap between 2021-09-16 (56,512 miles) and 2022-09-21 (73,922 miles), reflecting a 17,410-mile increase. Subsequent tests show decreasing intervals, with the 2024-07-03 and 2025-10-22 assessments covering 6,361 and 4,604 miles respectively. This pattern suggests either increased usage or a shift in maintenance frequency, though no anomalies in wear or performance were flagged. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as worn bushes or coil springs, which may not trigger MOT failures but can affect handling. Inspect brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion, as these are common in older vehicles. Structural integrity should also be assessed, particularly around the chassis and body seams, to rule out hidden rust or fatigue. The absence of recorded issues is positive, but the lack of a valid MOT as of 2026-07-22 necessitates immediate retesting before road use.
