TOYOTA RAV42020 · 2.5L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-06-10 assessment at 26,056 miles. No advisories or failures were noted across the 2023–2025 period, indicating consistent maintenance and adherence to regulatory standards. The absence of recurring issues suggests the previous owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the low mileage raises questions about long-term component wear. The 26,056-mile reading at 6 years old equates to approximately 4,343 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for this model. Mileage progression shows gradual accumulation, with 14,484 miles in 2023, 19,896 in 2024, and 26,056 in 2025. This pattern implies infrequent use or periods of inactivity, which could affect systems like the battery, brakes, and suspension. The 13-month gap since the last MOT (2025-06-10 to 2026-07-16) exceeds the standard 12-month interval, warranting immediate retesting to confirm continued compliance. A physical inspection should focus on components vulnerable to inactivity, such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, which may exhibit stiffness or corrosion. The exhaust system and structural integrity should also be checked for hidden damage, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to undetected rust in underbody areas. While the MOT history shows no critical faults, the lack of recent testing and mileage patterns necessitate a thorough pre-purchase evaluation to confirm mechanical soundness.
