2017 Toyota Hilux 2.4L Diesel · J33 HAR

This Toyota Hilux demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean record of passes. The most recent MOT on 30 June 2025 at 119,110 miles was completed without any defects or advisories. This follows a consistent pattern of clean tests dating back to May 2023, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that satisfies DVSA requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is high for a nine year old vehicle, averaging over 13,000 miles per year. The accumulation has been steady and rapid in recent periods, with 12,086 miles added between the July 2024 test and the June 2025 test. This level of usage typically accelerates wear on the drivetrain and chassis components, though the absence of MOT advisories suggests these parts have been replaced or maintained as they wore down. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT test may overlook or only superficially check. Given the high mileage and the nature of the Hilux, check the chassis and suspension mounting points for surface corrosion or structural rust, as these are common failure points for this model. Inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as the heavy usage indicated by the mileage often leads to degradation in these components. Verify the service history for oil changes and filter replacements. The MOT record shows no failures, but it does not confirm if the engine has received the necessary preventative maintenance required for a high-mileage diesel. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay and inspect the brake discs for excessive lip wear or scoring, as the clean MOT history implies the brakes are functional but does not indicate how much life remains in the consumables.
