2015 Toyota RAV4 2.0L Diesel · AE15 MVL

The Toyota RAV4 presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 13 November 2025 at 159,364 miles, where the tester recorded no defects and issued a pass. The maintenance trend is stable, with four consecutive passes across 2022 to 2025 and no advisories logged at any stage. The only blemish is a failed test on 11 November 2025 at 159,337 miles showing no defects recorded, suggesting an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, immediately rectified two days later. Mileage stands at 159,364 against an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 14,488 miles per year, which is high for the age and points to sustained motorway or business use. The records show steady annual accumulation: 97,996 miles on 31 October 2022, 118,621 on 3 November 2023, 140,058 on 14 November 2024, and 159,364 on 13 November 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear; the ~19,000 to 21,000 mile yearly increments reflect consistent heavy driving rather than periods of standing. Given the clean MOT history with zero advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion, the previous owner clearly kept the vehicle to a standard that satisfied DVSA thresholds. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underside rust, as MOT passes at this mileage do not confirm absence of developing wear in consumable items like tyres or wiper blades beyond test day. The high annual mileage implies elevated stress on drivetrain components and suspension geometry not always visible in a pass result. Physically verify brake caliper operation, exhaust emissions under load, and check service records for cambelt and transmission fluid intervals before purchase.
