Our Verdict

A cautious recommendation for high-mileage drivers seeking Toyota reliability. While the car has maintained a clean record recently, the high mileage and intermittent MOT failures require a thorough mechanical check.

When inspecting this AO06-registered Corolla, your priority should be the service history. At 145,000 miles, you must verify if the timing belt and water pump have been replaced according to Toyota's schedule, as this is a critical maintenance item for this engine. Check for signs of oil leaks, which can common up as these models age.

Given the MOT failures in 2024 and 2025, ask the owner exactly what caused these failures. Even if the records show 'no defects recorded' on the pass, the failures indicate components were worn out in the recent past. Test the clutch for slip and ensure the suspension isn't excessively worn given the mileage.
