2016 TOYOTA HILUX2.4L DIESEL

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition, having passed its most recent MOT in January 2026 at 77,262 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the latest report indicates a shift from defect-free inspections to active consumable wear. The January 2026 test flagged front brake pads wearing thin at 3mm to 4mm, which suggests the vehicle is approaching the end of a brake service interval rather than suffering from a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage profile is consistent with a well-used light utility vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between January 2022 and January 2024, the vehicle covered 14,324 miles with no recorded defects, suggesting a period of consistent upkeep. The subsequent interval of 7,011 miles between the January 2025 and January 2026 tests shows a steady, low-intensity usage pattern that is generally favourable for the structural integrity and drivetrain components of a ten-year old vehicle like the Hilux. A buyer should inspect the front braking system specifically, as the thin pads will likely require replacement shortly. The previous advisory regarding a nearside front tyre nail in early 2025 warrants a physical check of the current tyre for sidewall damage or uneven wear. Given the lack of structural corrosion advisories over the last five years, the focus should remain on the chassis and suspension bushes for hidden rust, as these are common areas of failure for vehicles of this age and mileage.
