2016 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · WN66 JSY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive approach to repairs rather than proactive care. The most recent test in November 2025 at 73,085 miles passed with no defects, following a failure just one day prior due to rear brake pads reaching the legal limit. This pattern suggests the owner only addresses mechanical issues once they trigger an MOT failure. While the vehicle has passed its annual tests, the recurring nature of consumable failures indicates a trend of deferring maintenance between service intervals. The mileage progression is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year over the ten-year period. Records show a steady increase in usage from 23,631 miles in September 2019 to 73,085 miles in November 2025. There are no significant gaps in the testing history to suggest long periods of the car sitting stationary. However, the low annual mileage may contribute to the degradation of rubber components, such as the wiper blades and fuel cap seals, which have perished or deteriorated despite the relatively low distance driven. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the braking system and suspension components. The record shows a persistent history of thin brake pads and worn discs dating back to 2022, with the most recent failure in late 2025. Furthermore, the play noted on the rear diff bush in November 2022 is a structural mechanical concern that requires verification to ensure it has not caused secondary wear to the drivetrain. The frequent mentions of uneven tyre wear and perishing rubber across multiple years also suggest potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be checked to avoid premature tyre replacement.
