Mitsubishi L200 Warrior Dcb Di D (2016)
2016 Mitsubishi L200 Warrior Dcb Di D
CarHunch analysed 150 real MOT records for the 2016 Mitsubishi L200 Warrior Dcb Di D. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2016 L200 Warrior is significantly less reliable than the UK average — just 54% pass first time against the national 80% benchmark, a real concern for a used truck purchase. The diesel variant that makes up the bulk of these vehicles performs even worse at 52.4%, suggesting the engine or fuel system is prone to MOT issues.
At 75,000 miles median, these trucks are well-used but typical for their age, yet they're still accumulating failures at 0.27 per vehicle on test. Before buying, get a pre-purchase inspection focused on the diesel engine and emissions system, and budget for imminent remedial work — this isn't a buy-and-drive prospect.
What to check before buying a 2016 Mitsubishi L200 Warrior Dcb Di D
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
