2009 London Taxis INT TX4 2.5L Diesel · AE09 FGK

The TX4 presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 14 March 2023 at 338,034 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Across the five entries supplied, the vehicle cleared every examination after a single early failure, showing no worsening pattern of faults or recurring advisories that would signal declining mechanical condition. The recorded mileage of 338,034 at the 2023 test equates to roughly 19,884 miles per year across its 17-year life, a high but typical load for a London taxi. The records show steady accumulation: 279,786 miles in September 2021, 301,558 miles in March 2022, 317,442 miles that September, and 338,034 by March 2023. A minor anomaly appears on 22 March 2022 where the tester logged a fail at 301,517 miles followed by a pass at 301,558 miles the same day, suggesting a rectification turnaround rather than neglected upkeep. No gaps exceed six months between tests. The DVSA data flags no suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues across the timeline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and chassis rust given the age and urban duty cycle, and verify the brake calipers and tyre condition despite the clean advisory history. The absence of recorded defects implies prior operators kept the cab to minimum test standard, though high mileage warrants scrutiny of drivetrain wear not captured by MOT checks.
