2004 Toyota Alphard 2.4L Petrol · WK04 ACG

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness based on its most recent MOT result, which passed on 2025-04-10 at 148,128 miles with no defects recorded. Previous tests from 2024 and 2023 also showed no issues, though a failed entry on 2023-05-06 at the same mileage as a passing test suggests potential data inconsistency. No recurring mechanical faults are evident in the record, and the absence of structural or safety-critical defects in the last three years indicates consistent maintenance. The mileage of 148,128 miles over nine years equates to an average of 16,459 miles annually, which is above the typical range for this age group. This suggests frequent use, increasing wear on consumables like tyres and brake components. MOT tests were conducted annually between 2022 and 2025, with no significant gaps, implying regular compliance. However, the high mileage raises concerns about long-term suspension bushings, coil springs, and exhaust emissions, which may require closer scrutiny despite no recorded failures. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as high mileage often accelerates these components’ degradation. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, particularly given the vehicle’s frequent use. Corrosion, especially in underbody areas, warrants attention due to the likelihood of exposure to road salt or moisture. While the MOT history shows no critical issues, the vehicle’s usage pattern necessitates a thorough mechanical check to confirm continued reliability.
