2008 Ssangyong Rexton 2.7L Diesel · RX08 HSK

The 2026‑03‑09 MOT at 70,255 miles confirms the 2008 SsangYong Rexton is presently roadworthy, as the test produced a pass with no defects recorded. All four MOT entries from 2024 to 2026 show a consistent pass outcome and no recorded faults, indicating a stable maintenance record. The vehicle’s 70,255 miles equate to roughly 3,900 miles per year over its 18‑year lifespan, a figure that is low for its age and suggests periods of limited use or stationary storage. Mileage increments are modest: an increase of 869 miles between the 2024‑05‑22 and 2025‑02‑25 tests, a further two miles by 2025‑03‑03, and 444 miles in the year to the latest test, showing no rapid accumulation. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and check for structural rust on the chassis and wheel arches, as these components are prone to deterioration in older SUVs. While the MOT history shows no systemic failures, the low mileage does not guarantee absence of corrosion or component fatigue, so a physical inspection focusing on these areas is essential before purchase.
