2011 Toyota RAV4 2.2L Diesel · SM61 AAN

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 27 June 2025 at 97,963 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed issues before they triggered a failure. The absence of recurring advisories over the last five years suggests the vehicle has been kept in good mechanical condition. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a fifteen-year-old Toyota, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. Data shows a notable increase in activity during 2024, where the car covered 6,653 miles between the January and April tests, and another 6,238 miles before the June 2025 inspection. Prior to this, the vehicle saw more modest intervals, such as the roughly 4,000 to 5,000 miles annually. This steady usage profile suggests regular driving which often helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and brake seizing typically associated with long periods of standing. While the digital record is flawless, a physical inspection should focus on age-related wear common to this generation of RAV4. The buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking, as these are often the first components to fail despite low mileage. Given the vehicle's age, checking the chassis for structural corrosion on the subframe and members is vital, as the MOT only checks for significant structural integrity issues. Additionally, verifying the brake lines for any fluid leaks and checking the thickness of the discs will confirm the mechanical health implied by the pristine test history.
