Our Verdict
We recommend proceeding with this 2021 M
When inspecting the vehicle, confirm that the front tyre wear noted in the 2025 MOT has been addressed or is scheduled for replacement; tyre condition is a common failure point for this model. Request any recent service invoices, especially those relating to tyre replacement, brake servicing, or gearbox checks, as these components are listed among the top failure reasons for the Outlander. Verify that the hybrid battery and electric systems have been maintained according to the manufacturer's schedule, even though the MOT records do not capture electrical health.
Negotiate the price with reference to the tyre advisory and the fact that the car has accumulated under‑average mileage for its age. A modest reduction can compensate for the imminent cost of new front tyres and provide a buffer for any future brake or gearbox inspections, which are also frequent failure areas for the model. Ensure the V5C registration document matches the details provided and that the mileage progression appears consistent across the MOT certificates.
Finally, consider obtaining a comprehensive HPI check to rule out hidden issues such as outstanding finance or previous write‑offs, as these are not reflected in MOT data. A full service history, while not mandatory, will give additional confidence in the vehicle's overall maintenance regime.
The Outlander Dynamic PHEV benefits from the UK government's clean‑engine tax band, resulting in a relatively low annual road tax (typically around £0 for the first year, then modest rates thereafter). Insurance groups for this model usually fall in the mid‑range (group 20‑25), giving an average annual premium of £600‑£800 depending on driver profile. Fuel economy for the hybrid system is advertised at around 45 mpg combined, which translates to roughly £600‑£700 per year for an average driver covering 10,000 miles.
Maintenance costs for the Outlander are moderate; routine servicing for a hybrid SUV typically runs £250‑£350 per visit, with major services every 30,000 miles. Given the vehicle's current mileage of 27,369 miles, it is approaching its first major service interval. Including tyre replacement (estimated £400‑£500 for a set of four) and a modest contingency for brake or gearbox checks, the estimated total annual running cost falls in the £800‑£1,000 range.
Pay particular attention to the front tyres, as the most recent MOT flagged them as worn close to the legal limit. Check tread depth, sidewall condition, and look for uneven wear that could indicate suspension or alignment issues. Replacing the front tyres promptly will bring the vehicle back to a fully compliant state.
Inspect the brake system, especially the discs and pads, because brake disc failures are among the top reasons for MOT rejections on this model. Look for any scoring, rust, or uneven pad wear, and listen for any unusual noises during a test drive. While the MOT records show no brake failures, proactive inspection can prevent future issues.
Examine the gearbox and CVT operation for smooth shifting and any abnormal noises. Gearbox mounting defects are another common failure for the Outlander, so ensure the mounting points are secure and there is no excessive vibration during acceleration. A test drive covering a range of speeds will help reveal any hidden concerns.
The grey 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander Dynamic PHEV CVT (registration YT21FSO) has logged 27,369 miles over 5.5 years, averaging roughly 5,000 miles per year, which is below the model's average annual mileage of 9,961 miles. All three recorded MOT tests have passed, with the most recent test highlighting tyre wear on the front wheels but no outright failures. The vehicle's hybrid powertrain and CVT transmission align with the model's typical reliability profile, and the MOT pass rate for the model group stands at 88.2%. Overall, the car presents a low‑risk proposition for a buyer seeking a relatively low‑mileage hybrid SUV.
The Mitsubishi Outlander averages an 88.2% MOT pass rate, indicating generally reliable performance, though tyre, gearbox mounting and brake disc problems are the most common failure points.
