AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2001 Mitsubishi has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 56,937 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the repeated failures and advisories for critical safety systems warrant significant caution.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,635 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring light failures (6 major) across 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 MOTs.
  • Brake hose advisory on 2010-11-03 escalated to failure on 2013-11-05, indicating a recurring safety concern.
  • Emissions failures on 2008-11-05 and 2013-11-05 suggest underlying engine management issues.
  • The vehicle is currently Untaxed and Not Valid for MOT, requiring immediate re-registration and inspection.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,635 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, albeit with a history of recurring failures.
  • No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT tests.
