2010 Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0L Diesel · WN60 HRX

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance record, having achieved a clean pass in the most recent inspection on 17 December 2022 at 113,535 miles. The absence of advisories across the last three successful tests suggests a consistent approach to preventative maintenance. However, the lack of any MOT data for the past three and a half years represents a significant gap in the vehicle's history, meaning its current roadworthiness remains unverified by any recent independent inspection. The recorded mileage of 113,535 miles over a sixteen-year lifespan averages approximately 7,096 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The data shows a period of low activity between the November 2020 and December 2020 tests, where the vehicle covered only 25 miles in a month, followed by a more substantial increase of over 12,000 miles during the 2021 calendar year. This fluctuation indicates that the car has experienced both static periods and phases of regular operation, which can lead to differing types of mechanical stress. Prospective buyers should prioritise a thorough physical inspection of the suspension components and the exhaust system, as these areas often suffer from degradation during the long periods of inactivity noted in the record. Given the age of the vehicle and the significant time elapsed since the last test, check for signs of surface corrosion on the subframes and brake lines, as well as perished rubber components such as suspension bushes and CV gaiters. Verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these consumables may have seized or developed surface rust during the extended period off the road.
