2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1.5L Petrol · WP19 HFN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with a clean MOT passed on 14 April 2026 at 35,869 miles—its fourth consecutive pass without defects. The maintenance trend is stable, showing no recurring failures or advisories since the tyre wear issues in 2022, and the absence of any defects across four annual tests suggests consistent care and no emerging mechanical faults. The mileage progression is notably low for a 2019 model, averaging just over 5,100 miles per year. Between the 2023 and 2024 tests, there was a 6,895-mile jump in 12 months, followed by a slower increase of 3,551 miles over the next 12 months to the 2025 test, and then just 270 miles in the 12 months leading to the April 2026 test. This pattern indicates a period of higher usage followed by very light use, possibly due to storage or reduced driving. The long gap between the July 2024 and April 2026 tests—21 months—is unusual but not uncommon for low-mileage vehicles, and the lack of defects in the latest test confirms the car remained in good condition during this time. A buyer should inspect the front tyres closely, as the 2022 advisories revealed significant edge wear, which often points to misalignment, worn suspension components, or underinflation. The absence of any further tyre advisories since then is encouraging, but the underlying cause may still be present. Check the brake system for signs of binding or uneven wear, especially on the front axle, as tyre wear of this nature can sometimes correlate with brake drag. Also verify the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and steering components, as prolonged periods of inactivity can cause rubber degradation or corrosion, even if mileage is low. The exhaust, lights, and fluid leaks should be confirmed as intact, but the clean record suggests these are unlikely to be issues.
