2008 Toyota RAV4 2.0L Petrol · AF52 KAF

The 2008 Toyota RAV4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 May 2025 at 64,283 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing a clean run across the available history. No advisories or mechanical faults appear in any test, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening condition over the period reviewed. Mileage sits low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle at 64,283 recorded miles, averaging roughly 3,571 miles per year. The record shows gentle accumulation: 56,841 miles in June 2022, 59,455 at the May 2023 pass, 62,140 by May 2024, and 64,283 by May 2025. A failed test on 18 May 2023 at 59,454 miles shows a one-mile discrepancy against the same-day pass at 59,455, with no defects listed on either entry. The sparse five-entry history with no flagged wear limits deep analysis of consumable or structural condition. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and likely periods of standing. Low use can mask perished rubber components and trapped moisture in sills or subframes that an MOT with no defects will not always expose. The same-day fail and pass in May 2023 suggests an administrative or measurement anomaly rather than a genuine mechanical defect. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory testing, though the thin record gives no evidence of proactive overhaul beyond minimum compliance.
