2019 Toyota Hilux 2.4L Diesel · RE19 OTS

The Hilux returned a PASS on 6 October 2025 at 76,651 miles with no recorded defects, confirming it remains roadworthy. The preceding test in October 2024 flagged front brake pads wearing thin, but the latest inspection shows no such advisory, indicating the maintenance trend is stable rather than deteriorating. Mileage accumulation has been aggressive: between the October 2024 test (56,186 miles) and the most recent test (76,651 miles) the vehicle logged roughly 20,500 miles in about ten months, averaging over 2,000 miles per month. This exceeds the typical 10,950‑mile annual rate for a seven‑year‑old Hilux and points to heavy or possibly commercial use. The MOT record is otherwise sparse, with only two tests recorded between April 2022 and April 2023, suggesting limited data on long‑term wear patterns. A buyer should inspect the brake system closely. The 2024 advisory on front pad wear implies the pads may need replacement soon; checking pad thickness, disc condition and caliper operation is essential. The high mileage also warrants a visual check of suspension bushes, coil springs and shock absorbers for wear, as well as inspecting the exhaust for corrosion and the underbody for rust. Tyre tread depth and condition should be verified, as rapid mileage can accelerate tyre wear. Finally, a thorough look at the drivetrain for oil leaks and the service history for regularity will help confirm the vehicle’s overall condition.
