2021 Toyota Corolla Icon HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · AF21 PWK

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-05-20 at 114,026 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the prior test on 2025-05-17 at the same mileage failed without recorded defects, raising questions about procedural consistency. Subsequent tests in 2025-02-11 (113,846 miles) and 2024-02-20 (76,120 miles) both passed with no issues, suggesting the failure may have been an anomaly. Overall, the trend appears stable, but the lack of defect details in the failure entry limits definitive analysis. The vehicle’s mileage of 114,026 miles over five years equates to an average of 22,805 miles annually, significantly higher than typical usage. A sharp increase from 76,120 miles (2024-02-20) to 113,846 miles (2025-02-11) over 12 months—37,726 miles—suggests heavy usage or frequent short trips, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust systems. The minimal 180-mile jump to the 2025-05-20 test implies prolonged inactivity or infrequent use post-2025-02-11, which may affect fluid longevity and corrosion risk. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as high mileage and erratic usage patterns can exacerbate these issues. Check brake discs for uneven wear or corrosion, and verify the exhaust system for leaks or rust, particularly under the vehicle. Structural integrity should be assessed for signs of rust or panel damage, as rapid mileage fluctuations may indicate exposure to harsh conditions. While MOT records show no critical failures, the high annual mileage and procedural inconsistency in the 2025-05-17 test warrant a thorough pre-purchase inspection.
