2009 Toyota Prius 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · AF59 SYH

The Toyota Prius presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 7 May 2025 at 141,027 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. The maintenance trend is stable, though the record shows a recurring pattern of initial failures followed by swift retests. On 22 April 2025 at 140,833 miles the car failed, yet no defects were listed, and it passed cleanly fifteen days later. The same sequence occurred in May 2024: a failure at 134,714 miles on 10 May, then a pass at 134,715 miles on 15 May with no advisories. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 2009 vehicle, averaging around 8,300 miles per year. The odometer moved from 126,991 miles at the May 2023 test to 134,715 miles by May 2024, then to 141,027 miles by May 2025. That is roughly 7,700 and 6,300 miles per year respectively, showing consistent but slightly declining use. The MOT data is sparse, with no advisories or recorded faults across any pass, which limits insight into wear on consumables or mechanical components. The repeated failures with no defects logged suggest administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults, but a buyer should still verify the vehicle in person. Given the age and 141,027 miles, inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for fatigue. Check underneath for corrosion to structural members and the exhaust system. Confirm the hybrid battery and inverter cooling system operate within spec, as these are not captured by the MOT. The clean record offers reassurance, yet a physical inspection remains essential before purchase.
