2017 Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2L Petrol · VK17 PWF

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile, showing a stable maintenance trend over the last several years. The most recent inspection in October 2025 at 40,571 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car is currently meeting all statutory safety standards. This follows a period of consistent performance, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained well enough to avoid recurring mechanical or structural failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per annum. Data shows consistent, light usage, with only 3,007 miles recorded between the October 2023 and October 2024 tests, and 1,360 miles in the final year recorded. This low mileage typically implies reduced wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components, though the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to dry seals or degradation of rubber components if the car has sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer should pay specific attention to the distorted nearside front road wheel rim noted during the October 2024 test at 39,211 miles. While the vehicle passed the following year, a bent rim often indicates a significant impact which could have affected the wheel alignment or suspension geometry on that corner. A physical inspection is required to check for vibrations at road speed or uneven tyre wear. Additionally, given the low mileage, checking the brake discs for surface pitting or corrosion is advisable, as infrequently used brakes often suffer from oxidation that high-mileage vehicles avoid.
