2007 Mitsubishi Shogun 3.2L Diesel · WN07 MXE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of deferred suspension component replacement. While the most recent test in July 2025 at 115,855 miles showed an advisory for a worn front anti-roll bar pin or bush, this represents a minor regression compared to the October 2023 test where the vehicle failed on multiple suspension and lighting defects. The overall trajectory suggests that the owner addresses mechanical faults once they reach a failure-level threshold, rather than performing preventative maintenance on wear-related components. At 115,855 miles over 19 years, the Shogun has averaged approximately 6,100 miles per annum, which is consistent with light usage for an SUV of this age. The data shows a steady rate of use, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between October 2023 and July 2024, and another 1,400 miles in the following year. This consistent mileage suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which helps prevent the premature degradation of rubber bushings and ball joints despite the lower mileage. A physical inspection must focus heavily on the front suspension geometry, given the recurring reports of worn track control arm bushes, ball joints, and anti-roll bar linkages. The 2023 failure specifically highlighted both nearside and offside lower suspension arms, and the 2025 advisory confirms the front-end components continue to show age. The buyer should also verify the condition of the brake pads, which were noted as wearing thin in July 2024, and ensure the HID headlamp leveling sensors are fully functional following the previous failure due to detached sensors.
