1993 Toyota MR2 2.0L Petrol · L976 GNM

The most recent MOT on 9 August 2025 was a clean pass at 119,641 miles, and the previous test a year earlier also passed with no recorded defects. Over the two‑year span the MOT record shows no recurring faults, indicating a stable condition rather than a worsening trend. At 119,641 miles the car averages about 3,600 miles per year, which is low for a 1993 model. This low mileage can mean the drivetrain, suspension and brake components have seen relatively little wear, but it may also suggest long periods of inactivity. Prolonged standing can lead to rust, dried seals and degraded bushings, so the mileage figure alone does not guarantee the car is free of age‑related wear. For a buyer, the first checks should be: - Inspect the chassis and under‑body for corrosion, especially around the rear subframe and suspension mounting points. - Examine the suspension bushings, ball joints and shock absorbers for signs of cracking or leaking. - Test the brakes for pad thickness, rotor condition and any uneven wear that could have developed during idle periods. - Look at fluid levels and condition (engine oil, coolant, brake fluid) and check for any leaks. - Verify that the engine runs smoothly at idle and under light acceleration, listening for unusual noises that might indicate hidden wear.
