2007 Mitsubishi Shogun Sport 2.5L Diesel · PJ07 YKG

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a persistent pattern of deferred repairs and recurring fluid leaks. While the most recent test in March 2022 at 135,233 miles passed with only a minor engine oil leak noted, the preceding years show a history of deteriorating suspension and steering components. The trend appears stable in terms of passing, but suggests a reactive maintenance approach where faults are only addressed once they approach failure thresholds rather than replaced proactively. The mileage profile is consistent with the vehicle's nineteen-year-old age, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. However, there is a significant gap in the records, as the vehicle has not had a recorded MOT since March 2022. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle is four years overdue for its test. This lack of data for the last four years means the current state of the drivetrain, braking system, and structural integrity is entirely unknown and represents a significant risk for a high-mass 4x like the Shogun Sport. A buyer must focus heavily on the front end geometry and steering assembly. The history shows repeated issues with track rod ends, ball joints, and anti-roll bar linkages, which were flagged repeatedly between 2019 and 2020. The steering box seepage noted back in 2018 and 2019 requires a physical inspection to ensure the leak has not worsened into a catastrophic failure. Additionally, the recurring oil leaks from the engine and rear differential necessitate a thorough check of the underside to confirm that these are not causing secondary damage or degrading rubber components.
