2018 Mitsubishi ASX 1.6L Petrol · WF67 NTK

This 2018 Mitsubishi ASX has covered approximately 46,515 miles, which is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle. While this suggests the car has seen lighter-than-average annual use, the MOT history indicates that the vehicle has required consistent attention to basic maintenance and consumables, suggesting that either the car has spent time sitting idle or it has been used for short, stop-start journeys that accelerate wear on specific components. The most concerning pattern in the MOT history is the recurring issue with brake pad wear. Records from 2023, 2024, and 2025 consistently highlight thin brake pads. Although the car passed its most recent test in August 2025, the persistent mention of thinning pads over several years suggests that either the braking system is being worked harder than the low mileage implies, or that maintenance has been reactive rather than proactive. The vehicle's mechanical condition appears stable but requires diligent oversight. The most recent MOT in 2025 identified wear to the rear anti-roll bar bushes. While this was noted as an advisory, it is a clear indicator that the suspension components are beginning to age. The history shows a mix of minor failures and advisories, which is typical for a vehicle of this age, but the frequency of these small repairs suggests that the owner has been addressing issues only when forced to at the point of the annual test. The low mileage is a positive feature, but it can sometimes mask issues related to lack of use, such as seized calipers or stiff suspension bushes.
