2021 Toyota RAV4 Black Edition HEV 4X2 CVT 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · HJ21 ADV

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 16 January 2026 at 39,369 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes, indicating the car has been kept in a condition that meets DVSA standards without the need for corrective work during the testing process. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a five year old vehicle. Between 19 January 2024 and 16 January 2026, the odometer rose from 19,044 to 39,369 miles, averaging roughly 10,000 miles per year over the last two years. This is a slight increase from the overall lifetime average of 7,874 miles per year, but it suggests regular use rather than prolonged periods of standing, which is generally preferable for hybrid battery health and braking system lubrication. The record shows a single failure on 18 January 2024 at 19,043 miles, though the vehicle passed the following day with no defects listed. This suggests a minor administrative error or a trivial rectification that did not warrant a detailed entry. There are no recurring mentions of suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion across the history. A physical inspection should focus on standard consumable wear given the lack of MOT advisories. Check the tyre tread depths and the condition of the brake pads, as these are often overlooked if they remain just above the legal limit during a test. Verify the service history to ensure the hybrid system and CVT transmission have received the manufacturer recommended fluid changes, as the MOT record only confirms basic roadworthiness rather than comprehensive mechanical servicing.
