2013 Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2L Petrol · YX13 PFE

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted in February 2026 at 77,538 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This clean record across the last five years indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements without allowing minor issues to escalate into test-day failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between the February 2024 test at 61,728 miles and the January 2025 test at 73,354 miles, the car covered 11,626 miles, representing a spike in usage compared to previous years where it typically covered under 9,000 miles. This low annual mileage suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber seals and brake components due to periods of light use. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a buyer should still inspect for issues common to low-mileage aging. This includes checking for perished suspension bushes, dry-rotted tyres, and seized brake calipers which can occur from infrequent use. Because the record shows no structural advisories for corrosion, the chassis integrity appears sound, but a physical inspection of the sills and wheel mounting points remains necessary to ensure no hidden rust has developed outside the standard MOT inspection areas.
