2018 TOYOTA HILUX2.4L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and positive maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 25 January 2025 at 50,644 miles resulted in no recorded defects, following a consistent history of clean passes in previous years. This indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the immediate mechanical or structural failures typically flagged during the DVSA's annual testing process. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle averaging approximately 6,300 miles per annum. Between the January 2022 test at 40,079 miles and the January 2024 test at 45,638 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 5,500 miles, showing steady low-intensity usage. The subsequent 5,000 miles covered between early 2024 and early 2025 maintains this trend, which generally reduces stress on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage commercial use. While the record is remarkably clean of recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on the potential effects of low-mileage operation. A buyer should check for signs of dry rot in tyres or corrosion on the brake discs, as vehicles that sit for long periods can suffer from surface oxidation. The failure recorded on 3 February 2023 at 42,639 miles was immediately rectified to achieve a pass the same day, suggesting a minor issue was addressed quickly rather than a pattern of neglect.
