2007 Mitsubishi Shogun 3.2L Diesel · WR07 VYD

The vehicle currently holds a passing MOT certificate as of December 2025, with the most recent test conducted at 124,176 miles. The maintenance trend shows a persistent deterioration in structural integrity and corrosion, specifically concerning the door step frames and inner sills, which were flagged as weakened and rusted in December 2025. This recurring pattern of structural concern, coupled with a significant suspension defect noted in December 2025, indicates an ongoing issue that requires careful assessment. The mileage progression is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 6,536 miles per year over the last several years. The record shows relatively stable mileage accumulation between the 2022 and 2025 tests, suggesting a typical usage pattern. There are no sudden, unexplained spikes in mileage that would suggest a recent period of heavy or neglected use. A buyer should focus immediate inspection on the underbody and structural components. The history documents corrosion and weakening of the nearside and offside door step frames, as well as the inner sills near the suspension mounting points. Furthermore, the failure noted in December 2025 regarding the excessively worn offside front upper suspension arm ball joint suggests potential wear on steering or suspension components that should be checked for excessive play or damage. The structural rigidity of the vehicle has been noted as not significantly reduced in previous tests, yet the persistent corrosion points to underlying issues that may require remedial bodywork or chassis inspection. The presence of multiple structural advisories over the last three MOT cycles confirms that the vehicle has been subject to significant rust development over its life.
