2010 Mitsubishi ASX 1.8L Diesel · WP10 XEO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the maintenance history indicates a period of reactive repairs. The most recent test in November 2022 at 104,965 miles resulted in no recorded defects, suggesting that the mechanical issues identified in previous years were addressed. However, because the last MOT was conducted over three years ago relative to the current date, the vehicle is currently out of test and requires an immediate inspection to ensure no new significant faults have developed during the extended period without official testing. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-mileage vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. Between May 2019 at 63,911 miles and November 2021 at 89,851 miles, the car covered roughly 26,000 miles in 30 months. The subsequent interval of 15,114 miles leading to the 2022 test shows steady usage. While the low mileage generally reduces wear on drivetrain components, the long intervals between tests can mask the degradation of rubber components and fluid integrity. A buyer must scrutinise the structural integrity of the vehicle during a physical inspection. The 2021 test flagged corrosion on both the front and rear sub-frames, as well as the general vehicle structure. While the tester noted structural rigidity was not significantly reduced at that time, corrosion is a progressive process on these models. You should check for ongoing surface rust or deep pitting on sub-frame mounting points. Additionally, the 2020 failure for a binding offside front brake caliper suggests a history of slider or piston issues, which should be tested for heat signs or uneven wear on the brake discs.
