This 2007 Mitsubishi has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 49,718 miles. The recurring structural and electrical failures, combined with a 19-year-old vehicle, make this a high-risk purchase.

The MOT history shows a critical mileage decrease of 30,289 miles between Jan 2019 (102,919 mi) and Feb 2020 (72,630 mi), indicating possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Jan 2019 (102,919 mi) and Feb 2020 (72,630 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • Mileage decreased by 30,289 miles between Jan 2019 (102,919 mi) and Feb 2020 (72,630 mi).
  • Not valid MOT since 2022-05-14, indicating no current roadworthiness certification.
  • Recurring major structural failures (sill, suspension arm) and electrical issues.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2025) indicates a strong safety record for its age.
  • Reliable catalytic converter and parking brake shoe maintenance, as per community reports.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,291 miles/yr, aligning with UK average.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current issues are historical.
