Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The overall roadworthiness status for this 2012 MITSUBISHI ASX is PASSED , but the maintenance trend is worsening as evidenced by the most recent test on 2026-05-22 at 76,383 miles. This test marked the first time the vehicle failed, with the tester flagging two critical defects: a worn child seat restricting the adult belt and a front tyre close to the legal limit with wear on the edge of the s/n. This progression indicates that the vehicle has not been maintained in a standard, consistent manner since 2024, where the first failure occurred. The mileage pattern is poorly calibrated relative to the vehicle's age. With approximately 14 years of age and roughly 5,456 miles per year, the vehicle is in a very low mileage zone, which typically suggests either light usage or extended absence. However, this low mileage does not account for the significant wear occurring between the 2022 and 2024 tests. The gap between the 2022 test at 56,525 miles and the 2024 test at 70,950 miles is critical; this period of rapid accumulation without any recorded maintenance is a major red flag. The 2026 test at 76,383 miles confirms that the vehicle has not been serviced since the 2024 inspection, meaning the wear on the front tyre, child seat, and brake components has likely accelerated. Given the recurring faults and the structural risks present, the buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to assess the condition of the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components. The history suggests that the vehicle is in a state of disrepair, with the most recent failure occurring at the 2026 test. A thorough inspection is required to determine if the vehicle is safe to drive, specifically evaluating the integrity of the suspension bushings and the condition of the brake discs and calipers.
