2016 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0L Hybrid electric · WV16 FTK

This 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander has a relatively recent MOT pass from April 2026, but the history reveals a recurring pattern of wear and tear regarding tyres and braking components. The mileage of 67,452 over ten years averages roughly 6,745 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. This suggests the car has likely seen regular, moderate use rather than heavy motorway driving or long periods of sitting idle. The mechanical trend shows a persistent issue with consumables. You can see a repeating cycle of worn tyres and thinning brake pads or pitted discs appearing in 2023, 2024, and most recently in 2026. While the car passed its most recent test, the presence of a damaged track rod end dust cover and a tyre worn close to the legal limit indicates that maintenance is often reactive rather than proactive. The condition trend appears to be worsening or at least remaining inconsistent. While 2025 was a clean year, the defects have returned in the most recent inspection, suggesting that components are being run close to their limits before being addressed. Before purchasing, you should inspect the tyre tread depth across all four corners and check the brake discs for any signs of heavy scoring or uneven wear. Given the recent advisory regarding the track rod end, I strongly recommend checking the steering for any play or knocks when turning the wheel at low speeds.
