2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1.5L Petrol · WM67 XBK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent inspection in November 2025 at 51,449 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates a positive maintenance trend following a period of minor neglect in previous years. The transition from multiple advisories in 2024 to a clean sheet suggests that the current owner has addressed the outstanding wear issues identified by the tester. The mileage pattern remains consistent with average usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per annum. There is a notable gap between January 2022 and October 2023 tests, where the car covered roughly 7,600 miles, followed by a more rapid interval of 7,800 miles in the year leading up to the 2024 test. This steady accumulation suggests the car does not sit stationary excessively, though the low overall mileage means components are more subject to age-related degradation than mechanical strain. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the tyres and braking system. The November 2024 test flagged all four tyres as worn close to the legal limit and on edge, which often points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. While the 2022 record noted a worn front brake disc, the buyer should verify the current thickness and check for uneven wear or pitting to ensure they were properly replaced. Additionally, the history of perishing rubber in 2022 necessitates a close check of the sidewalls for cracking, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from dry rot despite tread depth.
