Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle shows a stable maintenance trend based on the available MOT history, with the most recent test on 25 October 2023 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. The record indicates a single failure on 29 November 2022, though the specific mechanical reason for that failure was not documented in the provided data. Since that failure, the vehicle has successfully passed two consecutive inspections without any advisories or defects. The recorded mileage of 72,206 miles suggests an average annual usage of approximately 6,564 miles over the eleven-year lifespan of the vehicle. This represents relatively low mileage for a 2015 SsangYong Rodius. There are no significant gaps or sudden spikes in mileage evident between the recorded test dates, suggesting a consistent pattern of use rather than long periods of inactivity or heavy commercial application. Because the recent MOT history is clean and lacks specific technical advisories, the records do not highlight any ongoing issues with suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. However, the absence of recorded advisories regarding corrosion or tyre wear in the 2023 test does not preclude their presence. A physical inspection should focus on checking the structural integrity of the chassis for rust and examining the condition of the braking system and suspension components, which are common wear areas on vehicles of this age and type.

Our Verdict

This Ssangyong Rodius presents a relatively stable MOT history for a large diesel MPV. While there was a single failure in late 2022, the most recent records show no recorded defects.

When viewing this 2015 Rodius, focus on the service history to see how the 1998cc diesel engine has been maintained, as MOT records only show compliance with minimum safety standards. Given the large size of this vehicle, check for any signs of heavy loading or wear to the suspension components.

Negotiate based on the fact that while the recent MOTs are clean, the 2022 failure indicates a point of maintenance necessity. Ensure you verify the timing belt interval, as this is critical for this engine type, and check that all electronic features common to this model are operational.

As a 2.0L diesel MPV, running costs will be higher than a standard hatchback. Fuel economy will depend heavily on load and driving style, but buyers should expect typical diesel MPV figures.

Tax and insurance groups for the Rodius can vary based on specific trim levels, so obtain a quote using the VO15UFL registration before purchasing. Maintenance costs for Ssangyong parts can sometimes be higher than mainstream brands due to availability, so budget for regular servicing of the diesel components.

The MOT history shows a failure in November 2022, although no specific defect was listed in the summary provided; you should ask the seller for the specific reason for that failure to ensure it was rectified correctly.

Inspect the underside for corrosion, particularly around the suspension and exhaust, which is common in larger diesel vehicles. Check the tyres and brake pads, as these are frequent items that can lead to MOT advisories or failures on vehicles of this weight.

Registered in June 2015, this black 2.0L diesel Rodius has covered 72,206 miles as of its last MOT in October 2023. The vehicle has undergone four recorded MOT tests, showing one failure in November 2022 and three subsequent passes. The mileage appears consistent with a vehicle of this age and type.

There is currently no aggregate MOT data available to provide a statistical reliability reputation for the Ssangyong Rodius.
