2006 Mitsubishi Shogun Sport 2.5L Diesel · WP55 HFE

The vehicle's roadworthiness status is currently unverified due to a significant lapse in testing history. The last recorded MOT was a failure on 2021-09-20 at 162,994 miles. Since no subsequent tests are recorded, the current mechanical condition and legal compliance of the vehicle cannot be determined. The lack of recent data makes it impossible to establish whether the maintenance trend is stable, improving, or deteriorating. The recorded mileage of 162,994 miles is consistent with a 20-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,150 miles per year. This represents typical usage for a vehicle of this age and type. However, the absence of any MOT entries between September 2021 and the current date of July 2026 is a major concern. This five-year gap suggests the vehicle has either been off the road for an extended period or has been operated without the required legal inspections. A physical inspection is essential to assess the impact of this long-term inactivity. If the vehicle has been standing, there is a high probability of seized brake calipers, perished rubber suspension bushes, and degraded fuel or vacuum lines. You must check for significant corrosion on the chassis and subframes, as these are common failure points on older SUVs that have sat in damp conditions. Given the 2021 failure, you should also verify that any previously identified issues were addressed. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking and check the battery health and fluid levels. The lack of recent documentation means you are essentially buying a vehicle with an unknown mechanical history and an expired certificate of roadworthiness.
