2008 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0L Diesel · WR08 CVN

The 2025-07-01 MOT at 132,739 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming that the vehicle’s current condition remains roadworthy and that the maintenance trend is stable. Although a failure was logged on the same date at 132,738 miles, the absence of any defect notes on both entries suggests a clerical inconsistency rather than a genuine mechanical decline. The mileage has risen from 124,469 miles in July 2023 to 132,739 miles by July 2025, an average annual increase of roughly 2,750 miles, which aligns with the typical 7,374 miles per year for an 18‑year‑old model and shows no evidence of long idle periods or sudden mileage spikes. A buyer should therefore focus on the suspension system, checking for worn bushes, coil springs and any binding rear brakes, as these components commonly exhibit wear at this mileage; inspect the condition of brake discs and pads for scoring or corrosion, and examine the chassis and wheel arches for rust that could compromise structural integrity. Additionally, verify the exhaust system’s condition and ensure tyre tread and wiper blades are within serviceable limits, as the record shows no recorded defects but the vehicle’s age warrants a thorough visual and functional assessment.
