2015 Toyota RAV4 Invincible D-4D Auto 2.2L Diesel · GXZ 7149

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 30 September 2025 at 157,360 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car consistently meets the testing requirements following initial failures. While the record shows two failures in September 2023 and 2025, the immediate rectification of these issues within a few days suggests that the current owner is proactive in addressing safety-critical de-motivations rather than allowing faults to persist. At 11 years old, this RAV4 reflects a high-mileage profile with an average of approximately 14,300 miles per year. The mileage data shows consistent usage over time; for instance, the vehicle covered 14,242 miles between the September 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 13,213 miles in the year preceding that. This regular accumulation indicates frequent motorway use, which often keeps the drivetrain and suspension components under constant load rather than suffering from degradation during long stationary periods. The lack of long gaps between tests further confirms that the vehicle has been regularly operational and exposed to the wear and tear of daily driving. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and braking system given the high mileage. High-mileage SUVs frequently experience significant stress on control arm bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, which can lead to premature wear or leaks. Since the MOT record shows no specific advisories for corrosion, a manual check for surface rust on the chassis or thinning of brake discs is necessary to ensure the structural integrity remains sound. The condition of the automatic transmission fluid and gear shift quality are also vital to ensure the high-mileage usage has not compromised the mechanical health of the drivetrain.
