1996 TOYOTA SUPRA3.0L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of passes in recent years. The most recent inspection conducted on 2 August 2025 at 108,113 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal standards. This follows a period of clean passes over the previous three years, suggesting that the mechanical and safety components have been maintained well enough to avoid testing failures. The mileage profile is remarkably low for a thirty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. Between March 2021 and August 2025, the car covered only 2,188 miles, which suggests very infrequent use or long periods of storage. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often leads to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and fluids due to inactivity. The significant gap between the 2023 and 2025 tests shows the vehicle is not driven as a daily commuter. The only failure on the record occurred in March 2021 due to minor electrical issues involving the offside stop lamp and offside rear fog lamp. These were rectified immediately as evidenced by the pass on the same day. Because the record shows no advisories for corrosion, brake thinning, or suspension wear, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related degradation. Specifically, inspect the chassis for structural rust in the sills and wheel arches, and check for perished suspension bushes or leaking brake lines which are common in low-mileage classic cars that sit for extended periods.
