2011 TOYOTA IQ1.0L Petrol

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-02-19 at 64,272 miles showed no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests in 2024 and 2023 recorded mixed outcomes, including passes and fails with no recorded defects, suggesting inconsistent testing or unresolved minor issues. The absence of critical failures in the latest test implies the car remains roadworthy, but the lack of detailed defect records limits confidence in its long-term reliability. The vehicle’s mileage of 64,272 miles over 15 years equates to an average of 4,285 miles annually, significantly lower than typical usage. This suggests infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on rubber components, electrical systems, and fluids. Notably, the 2024-02-12 test at 62,718 miles recorded a fail with no defects, raising questions about the testing process or unrecorded issues. The sparse data makes it difficult to assess gradual deterioration, but the low mileage pattern may mask hidden problems from stagnation. A physical inspection should prioritise suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as low mileage can lead to stiffness or corrosion in these areas. The absence of exhaust emissions or structural integrity advisories in the records is reassuring, but buyers should verify tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and fluid levels, as these are common consumables affected by inactivity. The vehicle’s maintenance history lacks clear indicators of recurring faults, but its age and mileage profile necessitate a thorough check for hidden wear.
