2018 Mitsubishi ASX 2.3L Diesel · TP58 PAR

The most recent MOT on 2025-09-10 showed the 2018 Mitsubishi ASX passed with no defects recorded at 76,700 miles. This is the first time the vehicle has been tested since 2024, and the result suggests it is currently in acceptable condition. However, the MOT history reveals a failed test on 2024-09-09 at 60,092 miles, which was listed as "FAILED" but with no defects recorded. This inconsistency raises questions about the nature of the failure, as MOT failures typically require at least one defect or advisory. The lack of detail makes it difficult to assess the severity of the issue, but it indicates a potential irregularity in the testing process or a minor non-compliance that was resolved before the subsequent pass. The vehicle’s mileage of 76,700 miles at 8 years old aligns with an average of 9,588 miles per year, which is typical for its age. However, the jump from 60,093 miles (2024-09-09) to 76,700 miles (2025-09-10) suggests a significant increase in usage over the past year, potentially accelerating wear on components like brakes, suspension, and the drivetrain. While the latest MOT confirms no defects, the higher mileage could mean these systems have experienced more stress than expected for a vehicle of this age. Buyers should be cautious about hidden wear that may not have been flagged in the MOT. The MOT history shows no recurring defects or safety-critical issues, as all entries list "no defects recorded." This implies the vehicle has generally been well-maintained, but the failed test in 2024-09-09 remains unexplained.
