2011 TOYOTA RAV-42.2L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 12 March 2026 at 134,770 miles resulted with no defects recorded, continuing a three-year clean streak. This trend indicates that following a single failure in February 2023, the owner addressed the necessary repairs and maintained the vehicle to a passing standard without recurring failures. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year. Between the March 2024 test at 111,634 miles and the March 2026 test at 134,770 miles, the car covered 23,136 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The intervals between tests are regular, generally falling within the 13-month window, which suggests the vehicle has not been left stationary for long periods that would lead to the degradation of seals and rubber components. While the MOT record is clean, a buyer must still perform a physical inspection of common wear points for a Toyota RAV-4 with over 130,000 miles. Focus on the suspension arm bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often perish before triggering an MOT failure. Given the age and mileage, inspect the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and rear mounting points, as the MOT only checks for rust once it compromises structural integrity. Checking the brake system for binding calipers or uneven pad wear is also advisable to ensure the lack of defects in the record reflects actual mechanical health.
