2017 Mitsubishi L200 2.4L Diesel · RV67 SOC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in November 2025 at 106,367 miles flagged multiple advisories regarding all four tyres and front brake pads being near the legal limit or wearing thin. This suggests that consumables are only being addressed when they approach failure thresholds. While the vehicle passed, the high density of wear items indicates a lack of routine preventative maintenance between annual intervals. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical heavy-use profile, averaging approximately 11,800 miles per year. There is a significant jump in usage between December 2023 at 68,266 miles and December 2024 at 86,030 miles, covering nearly 18,000 miles in a single year. However, the vehicle covered another 20,000 miles in the following eleven months up to the November 2025 test. This accelerated rate of travel places increased stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking system. A buyer must physically inspect the front suspension components, specifically the anti-roll bar bushes and pins which were flagged as worn in December 2024. The recurring edge wear on tyres noted in 2020, 2022, and 2025 suggests a persistent alignment issue or uneven suspension wear that has not been professionally rectified. Given the history of thin brake pads and worn discs across multiple years, a thorough check of the rotor thickness and caliper condition is required to ensure the system is not seizing or requiring immediate replacement.
