2015 Mitsubishi L200 2.4L Diesel · SV65 PXR

The most recent MOT on 2025-10-16 recorded multiple issues despite the vehicle passing. A fuel tank leak was addressed, as it was not mentioned in this test, but the exhaust remained in poor condition. Corrosion on the front lower suspension arms and vehicle structure persisted, and front brake hoses showed deterioration. These findings suggest ongoing concerns with rust and component wear. A failed MOT in 2025-09-25 highlighted similar issues, including a fuel tank leak, corroded suspension arms, and a deteriorated front brake hose. The severity of the fuel tank leak (risk of fire) indicates a critical defect that was resolved before the subsequent pass. However, the recurrence of corrosion and exhaust problems implies a pattern of environmental or usage-related degradation. The trend shows mixed outcomes. While some issues like the fuel tank leak were fixed, others such as corrosion and exhaust condition remained unresolved. The 2024-09-02 MOT was clean, but earlier tests from 2023 and 2022 noted rust on shock absorbers and worn brake discs.
