2010 Toyota RAV-4 2.0L Diesel · RJ60 ACU

This Toyota RAV-4 presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its MOT history. The most recent test on 4 June 2025 at 103,095 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed its tests on 31 May 2025 and 24 May 2023, the lack of recorded defects during those failures suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified immediately. The absence of advisories across multiple years indicates a vehicle that has been kept in a consistent state of repair. The mileage pattern is typical for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,443 miles per year. The distance covered between 24 May 2023 and 23 May 2024 was 5,491 miles, showing steady usage. A slightly higher increase occurred between May 2024 and June 2025, with 4,779 miles added. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and underbody. Vehicles of this age and model are prone to corrosion on the subframes and suspension mounting points, which may not always trigger an MOT failure until the structural integrity is severely compromised. Checking for surface rust on the brake discs and the condition of the suspension bushes is advisable given the 103,095-mile odometer reading. The lack of recurring faults regarding exhaust emissions or brake binding suggests a well-maintained drivetrain. Focus your inspection on the wear levels of the tyres and the condition of the coil springs. Since the record shows no advisory trends, the primary risk remains age-related degradation of rubber components and structural oxidation rather than systemic mechanical failure.
