2007 Mitsubishi L200 2.5L Diesel · PL07 ADZ

The vehicle, a 2007 Mitsubishi L200, passed its most recent MOT test on 2025-07-28 at 98,765 miles, with no defects recorded. However, the maintenance trend is not entirely stable, as it failed its previous test on 2025-07-17 at the same mileage, with no defects recorded. This inconsistency may indicate a minor issue that was not detected or addressed. The vehicle's mileage pattern is noteworthy. With approximately 5,198 miles per year, it is relatively low for its age, suggesting either lighter use or long periods of standing. Notable gaps in mileage accumulation are observed between 2023 and 2024, with a 1,198-mile gap between the 2023-05-30 test and the 2024-06-19 failure, and another 639-mile gap between the 2024-07-11 test and the 2025-07-17 failure. These gaps may indicate extended periods of inactivity or infrequent use. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's brakes, as the tester flagged binding rear brakes in the 2024-06-19 failure, and the vehicle failed its test on 2025-07-17, although the cause was not specified. Furthermore, the vehicle's suspension should be examined, as the 2024-06-19 failure mentioned worn shock absorbers. Additionally, the buyer should inspect the vehicle's exhaust emissions, as the tester flagged a minor issue in the 2024-06-19 failure. The vehicle's structural integrity should also be assessed, as the 2024-06-19 failure mentioned minor corrosion on the rear axle.
