Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While this L200 is
Priority should be given to a thorough chassis inspection. The 2022 MOT recorded structural corrosion at the nearside front, nearside rear, offside front, and offside rear; you must verify the current state of the frame to ensure it remains safe. Ensure you have receipts for the brake pipe replacements and the fractured leaf spring repair carried out in October 2023.
Given the failure in October 2024 regarding the diesel particle filter (DPF) light, ask for evidence of how this was resolved. A simple reset of the light is less desirable than a professional clean or replacement of the filter, especially given the high mileage of 177,180 miles.
The 2.4L diesel engine provides the necessary torque for a pick-up but will result in higher road tax and insurance premiums compared to smaller vehicles. Fuel economy will be typical for a vehicle of this size and age, though high mileage can sometimes lead to decreased efficiency.
Maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average for this vehicle. The MOT history suggests a susceptibility to corrosion and suspension wear (leaf springs), which are common but costly areas to maintain on older L200s. Expect higher spend on consumables and preventative rust treatment.
Inspect the underbody and chassis specifically for the structural corrosion noted in the 2022 MOT. Check the brake pipes for any signs of further corrosion, as these were a major failure point in 2023 and are listed as a top failure reason for this model overall. Examine the rear leaf springs for any signs of stress or previous poor-quality repairs.
Check the dashboard for any active warning lights, specifically the DPF light that caused a failure in late 2024. Finally, test the windscreen wipers to ensure the replacements installed after the 2024 failure are functioning correctly.
This black 2015 Mitsubishi L200 has covered 177,180 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average. The MOT history reveals a pattern of corrosion, including multiple brake pipe failures in 2023 and structural corrosion advisories across all four corners in 2022. Most recently, the vehicle failed its October 2024 test due to a DPF light and wiper issues before passing.
The L200 has an average MOT pass rate of 79.6%, with brake pipe corrosion being one of the most frequent failure points across the model range.
