2008 Mitsubishi Colt 1.3L Petrol · WN08 NKO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status despite a pattern of immediate re-test successes. The most recent inspection on 20 January 2026 at 106,993 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests the owner is proactive in rectifying identified faults immediately to maintain a valid certificate. The lack of recurring advisories across the 2024, 2025, and 2026 records indicates the vehicle currently sits in good mechanical and structural condition. At 106,993 miles, this 18-year-old Mitsubishi Colt has averaged approximately 5,944 miles per year. The mileage data shows a consistent usage pattern, with 4,103 miles covered between the January 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 2,131 miles covered before the January 2026 test. This low annual mileage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of rubber-based parts and seals degrading due to age rather than distance. A physical inspection should focus on the areas that likely caused the recent failures, as the record does not specify the exact defects corrected. Common points of failure for this model and age include light bulbs, tyre tread depth, or minor brake fluid leaks. Given the vehicle's age, the buyer must also scrutinize for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as structural integrity often degrades over decades regardless of low mileage. Check the suspension bushes for cracks and perished rubber, as low-mileage vehicles can develop brittle components over long periods of standing.
