2013 Toyota Avensis Icon D-4D 2.0L Diesel · SKZ 7004

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing an improving maintenance trend over the last three years. Following a single failure in April 2023 at 76,385 miles, the car has passed three consecutive annual inspections with no recorded defects. The most recent test in April 2026 at 87,603 miles confirms that the previous issues have been rectified and that the vehicle currently meets all DVSA safety and emissions standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle for its age, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation of distance, moving from 79,906 miles in March 2024 to 87,603 miles by April 2026. This regularity suggests the car has not been subject to long periods of stationary neglect, though the low annual mileage on older engines can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or dry-rott seals if the vehicle has not been driven on longer routes regularly. While the recent records are clean, a buyer should investigate the specific cause of the April 2023 failure to ensure the repair was thorough. Given the age of the 2013 Avensis, a physical inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the chassis, particularly sills and wheel arches where corrosion often begins to manifest. Check the suspension bushes for signs of tearing and inspect the condition of the brake discs for pitting, as low-mileage cars can suffer from surface rust if the braking system is not used frequently.
