2010 Toyota IQ 1.3L Petrol · EA60 ABN

The 2010 Toyota IQ presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with no defects recorded in its last five consecutive MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-07-15 assessment at 72,980 miles. All prior tests from 2021 to 2024 showed similar pass results with no recorded issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. The vehicle’s absence of advisories or failures over this period suggests the previous owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the lack of detailed defect notes limits insight into specific component conditions. The mileage progression shows a steady annual increase of approximately 4,500–4,800 miles, aligning with the vehicle’s 16-year age. The 2021-07-08 test at 63,708 miles to the 2025-07-15 test at 72,980 miles reflects a consistent usage pattern without abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity. This low mileage for the vehicle’s age may indicate infrequent use or storage, which could affect components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake calipers if not periodically exercised. However, the MOT record lacks evidence of corrosion, structural damage, or emission-related issues that might arise from such conditions. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, particularly if the low mileage suggests underuse, and inspect brake discs and pads for uneven wear or corrosion. The absence of recorded faults on tyres, exhaust, or steering systems is reassuring, but physical checks for rust on chassis rails, wheel arches, or underbody panels are advisable. While the MOT history confirms no critical failures, the lack of detailed defect reports means a pre-purchase inspection should focus on confirming the vehicle’s mechanical integrity beyond the recorded tests.
