2012 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3L Petrol · SK12 VOC

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, showing a consistent maintenance trend following intermittent failures. The most recent test on 7 June 2025 at 95,539 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded, indicating that previous mechanical issues were addressed effectively. This follows a pattern where the car successfully passes inspections shortly after re-test failures, suggesting the owner is proactive in rectifying MOT faults identified by the tester. The mileage profile remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,800 miles annually. Between the June 2023 and June 2024 tests, the car covered 6,532 miles, while it clocked 8,027 miles in the year leading up to the June 2025 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular road use rather than long periods of standing, which generally benefits the condition of rubber components, brake seals, and engine systems. While the most recent records are clean, the failures at 80,980 miles and 87,504 miles indicate that the vehicle is prone to specific faults that require attention. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension to check for worn bushes or leaking shock absorbers, as these are common triggers for failure on this model. Given the age of the Mitsubishi, a close look at the structural integrity around the sills and wheel arches is necessary to ensure that corrosion is not developing despite the clean recent advisories.
