Our Verdict
Caution advised due to recent MOT failures, high mileage, and recurring brake system issues. This vehicle requires thorough inspection before purchase.
Prioritise a detailed mechanical inspection of the brake system, focusing on discs, pads, and pipes identified in recent MOTs. Check for signs of underseal degradation, as corrosion risks remain. Negotiate the price significantly due to the 2026 MOT failure and high mileage. Verify service records to confirm repairs were completed, particularly for the offside rear shock absorber leak and tyre wear. Be wary of potential hidden costs from repeated brake maintenance.
Diesel fuel economy for the 1.4L engine is moderate, with typical costs around £1.30-£1.40 per litre. Road tax for diesel vehicles registered after 2017 is £140 annually. Insurance group likely falls in the mid-range (estimate £1,200-£1,500/year). Brake component replacement and suspension repairs could add £300-£500 annually. Estimated annual running cost: £1,200-£1,500.
Focus on brake discs, pads, and pipes for wear or corrosion, as these were repeatedly flagged. Inspect the nearside front tyre for excessive wear and check for proper inflation. Examine the underseal for cracking or peeling, which could indicate hidden rust. Test the offside rear shock absorber for leaks and ensure suspension components are secure. Verify the windscreen wiper's functionality and check for any unaddressed MOT defects.
The 2010 Toyota Urban Cruiser has a high mileage of 114,383 miles and a mixed MOT history with multiple brake-related failures. While it had a clean MOT in 2023, recent tests reveal corrosion, worn brake components, and a tyre nearing replacement. Toyota's reputation for reliability is offset by these specific issues and the vehicle's age.
No aggregate data available for the Toyota Urban Cruiser, but Toyota as a brand is generally reliable. This vehicle's specific issues suggest potential corrosion and brake wear concerns.
