2019 Mitsubishi L200 2.3L Diesel · WN69 PVO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy having passed its latest MOT in October 2025. The maintenance trend shows a period of instability regarding the front braking system. While the vehicle passed without defects in 2024, it failed at 40,583 miles due to the offside front service brake fluctuating excessively. This mechanical fault was rectified immediately for the re-test just three miles later, indicating the owner responds to MOT failures but may not perform preventative maintenance on braking components. The mileage profile is consistently low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. Data shows a steady progression between tests, with roughly 6,300 miles covered between September 2022 and October 2023, and another 5,700 miles between October 2023 and 2024. This low usage suggests the vehicle was likely used for short trips or light tasks rather than heavy commercial work. However, low mileage can sometimes lead to accelerated corrosion on brake discs and rubber components, which aligns with the issues noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the front braking assembly. The history reveals recurring pitting and scoring on both front brake discs back in 2022 and 2023, followed by a significant failure in late 2025. This pattern suggests the discs are prone to surface corrosion or the vehicle has a tendency to sit for periods of inactivity. Verify that the current discs are free of heavy rust and that the calipers are not sticking. Given the age and low mileage, also check the chassis for surface rust and inspect the suspension bushings, as these areas often suffer on vehicles that are not driven frequently.
