2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1.5L Petrol · WT18 EYP

The vehicle presents a high roadworthiness status with a consistent history of clean MOT passes over its lifetime. The most recent test conducted on 1 July 2025 at 29,130 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a remarkably stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has been kept to a standard that avoids the common mechanical and structural failures typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,641 miles per year. Between June 2021 at 16,078 miles and July 2025 at 29,130 miles, the car covered only 13,052 miles. This consistent low-usage profile suggests short-distance trips or significant periods of storage. While this reduces wear on the engine, drivetrain, and suspension components, it can sometimes lead to issues with rubber-based parts or fluid degradation from infrequent motion. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a buyer should physically inspect specific areas associated with low-mileage vehicles. Long periods of standing can cause brake corrosion, flat-spot tyres, and degradation of suspension bushes or seals. The tester found no issues in the last five tests, but a check of the brake discs for pitting and an assessment of the tyre sidewalls for cracking are advisable. Given the clean history, the structural integrity appears well-preserved, but the focus remains on the mechanical effects of age versus use.
