2018 Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2L Petrol · RV18 MWU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend toward improving mechanical presentation. The most recent inspection conducted in August 2025 at 67,317 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that previously identified issues have been successfully addressed. This follows a clean result in August 2024, suggesting that the current owner is maintaining the car to a standard that meets minimum safety requirements. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per annum. There is a notable increase in usage between March 2022 and March 2023, where the car covered over 10,000 miles in twelve months. However, the usage has moderated since, with roughly 6,000 miles recorded between the August 2024 and August 2025 tests. This regular interval is beneficial for mechanical components as it prevents the corrosion and seizing often associated with long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking system due to historical trends. The March 2023 test at 47,876 miles flagged all four tyres as nearing the legal limit with uneven edge wear, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn shock absorber bushes. Additionally, the March 2024 test at 58,062 miles identified thin front brake pads. While the latest records are clean, the buyer should verify the remaining life of the brake pads and check for any scoring on the discs to ensure the previous repairs were thorough.
