2020 TOYOTA RAV42.5L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The 2025‑09‑10 MOT at 43,058 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle meets the DVSA roadworthiness standard and indicating a stable maintenance trend. Earlier tests in September 2024 and August 2023 also showed passes with no recorded faults, reinforcing consistent upkeep. The 2020 model is now six years old and has accumulated 43,058 miles, averaging 7,176 miles per year. The interval from 27,932 miles in August 2023 to 33,938 miles in September 2024 represents roughly 6,000 miles over 13 months, while the subsequent year added 9,120 miles, showing steady usage rather than rapid mileage build‑up. The 2023 test flagged near‑side and off‑side front tyres worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, a pattern that suggests regular tyre replacement but limited other wear. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or excessive play, as edge tyre wear often correlates with worn suspension components. Examination of the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, assessment of structural rust on the chassis, and verification of exhaust emissions levels will address the mechanical points highlighted in the record. Additionally, checking the condition of the tyres themselves and any associated wiper blades will reveal whether consumable wear remains isolated. Overall, the record shows no recurring mechanical failures, and the vehicle appears to have been maintained without major interventions; a thorough in‑person inspection of the braking system, suspension geometry and chassis integrity will confirm whether the observed tyre wear reflects isolated consumable use or broader wear patterns.
