2014 Mitsubishi L200 2.5L Diesel · WN64 AEC

The Mitsubishi L200 passed its most recent MOT on 10 April 2026 at 97,221 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy as of that test. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the surrounding history shows two abrupt failed tests with no listed defects immediately before clean passes, which points to administrative or presentation issues rather than a clear mechanical decline. Recorded mileage rose from 71,689 miles at the November 2023 test to 78,171 miles by October 2024, then jumped to 97,168 miles by March 2026. That equates to roughly 8,100 miles per year overall, typical for a 2014 vehicle, but the 19,000-mile gain across the final fifteen months suggests heavier recent use. The sparse record, with only five entries over twelve years and no advisories ever logged, gives little insight into consumable wear or hidden corrosion. The failed tests on 30 March 2026 at 97,168 miles and 22 October 2024 at 77,850 miles recorded no defects, so the DVSA data does not expose specific faults such as worn suspension bushes, binding calipers, or exhaust issues. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of brake discs, coil springs, and underbody structural integrity given the age and the unexplained failures. Previous owners presented the truck for test twice without a clear fault being cited, then passed days later, implying minor prep or documentation gaps rather than neglected mechanical care. Verify the chassis for rust and check tyre tread depth and wiper condition in person, as these consumables are absent from the record but critical on a high-mileage commercial 4x4.
