2010 Mitsubishi L200 2.5L Diesel · WN60 FZG

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs on aging components. While the most recent test in January 2026 at 115,429 miles passed, the tester identified corrosion on both rear brake pipes covered in grease. This indicates a departure from the clean records seen in 2023 and 2024, suggesting that components are now beginning to show age-related degradation that will require consistent attention to prevent future failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. Between February 2023 at 94,643 miles and February 2025 at 108,894 miles, the truck covered roughly 14,000 miles, showing steady and predictable use. The failure in February 2024 due to a split offside front inner CV boot was rectified immediately within one day, indicating that the owner is willing to address urgent mechanical faults once they are identified. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry, as the February 2025 test flagged worn upper arm bushes and slight play in the ball joints on both sides. These issues often lead to uneven tyre wear and steering instability if not replaced. Furthermore, the corrosion on the rear brake pipes noted in the 2026 test requires a close look to determine if the grease is merely masking surface rust or if structural thinning is occurring, which would lead to a hydraulic failure in the near future.
