2015 Ssangyong Korando 2.0L Diesel · PN65 XHB

The 2015 SsangYong Korando presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 23 August 2025 at 44,834 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, with the vehicle passing cleanly in the latest examination after two earlier same-day fail/pass cycles in 2024 and 2025 that closed with no advisories or recorded faults. No worsening mechanical pattern emerges across the three-year record. Mileage sits low for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The Korando covered just 2,223 miles between the August 2023 test at 39,013 miles and the August 2024 examination at 42,596 miles, then added only 2,238 miles to reach 44,834 miles by August 2025. Annual use averages roughly 4,076 miles. Such low accumulation suggests extended standing periods are plausible, which can allow corrosion or perished rubber components to develop despite minimal wear to drivetrain consumables. The repeated fail then pass results on 21 August 2024 at 42,591 and 42,596 miles, and again on 14 then 23 August 2025 at 44,831 and 44,834 miles, show no defects were logged on any certificate. This implies administrative or presentation issues at test rather than mechanical rejection. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and underbody structural integrity, since long idle spells invite unseen rust and degraded flexible mounts not captured by a clean MOT sheet. Given the sparse history with zero advisories, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic test compliance, though the dual fail/pass pairs hint at lapsed paperwork or minor pre-test corrections. Verify service records and check for structural corrosion before purchase.
