2007 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3L Petrol · SE07 CPV

The Mitsubishi Colt presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed the most recent test on 26 July 2023 at 110,265 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the history shows two failed tests earlier in the record that were cleared without listed defects. No worsening mechanical pattern is evident from the supplied data. The recorded mileage sits at 110,265 against a 2007 build, averaging roughly 5,800 miles per year. The vehicle was tested on 2 July 2021 at 82,660 miles, then again on 13 July 2022 at 85,171 miles, showing only 2,511 miles in that year. A sharp rise to 110,257 by 20 July 2023 adds 25,086 miles in twelve months, suggesting heavier use or a prior period of storage followed by regular commuting. The clean defect sheets across all entries indicate no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions were logged. The July 2021 and July 2023 failures carry no recorded defects, which points to administrative or documentation issues rather than flagged mechanical faults such as binding calipers or worn coil springs. A buyer should still verify the structural integrity and check for hidden corrosion beneath sills and suspension mounts, as MOT testers may miss intermittent faults on a low-mileage car that has stood idle. Given the sparse and clean record, in-person inspection should focus on tyre condition, wiper blades, and underbody rust that low annual use can mask. The rapid mileage gain in the final year warrants a check of clutch wear and drivetrain noise uncommon in slower-aged vehicles.
