Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the recent M
The primary concern for this vehicle is the mileage discrepancy recorded between June 2023 and August 2024. You must request full service documentation to verify the actual mileage and understand why the odometer reading decreased. If the seller cannot provide a logical explanation or evidence of a dashboard replacement, this is a significant red flag.
Given the high mileage of 153,144, ensure the diesel particulate filter (DPF) has been maintained and check for any signs of soot buildup. Verify the service history for timing belt or chain maintenance as per Toyota's requirements for this 2.2L engine variant to avoid catastrophic failure.
As a 2.2L diesel, this RAV4 will offer decent motorway fuel economy, but tax and insurance will be higher than the smaller petrol variants. It likely falls into a mid-to-high CO2 tax band for its year, and insurance groups for the RAV4 are generally moderate.
Maintenance costs for high-mileage Toyotas typically involve wear-and-tear items. Based on model data, you should budget for the eventual replacement of brake discs and shock absorbers, which are common failure points for this model. Annual costs including fuel, tax, insurance, and servicing are estimated to be higher due to the vehicle's age and mileage.
Carefully inspect the tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), as this caused a failure in 2023. Check the condition of the shock absorbers and brake discs, as these are listed as top failure reasons across the wider RAV4 population and are likely to show wear at 153,000 miles.
Perform a thorough check of the interior for wear consistent with the high mileage. Additionally, check the front windscreen and dashboard area to ensure no items are obstructing the driver's view, which was a specific point of failure in the 2023 MOT test.
This 2014 black Toyota RAV4 diesel has covered 153,144 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average. The MOT history shows a failure in 2023 related to the tyre pressure monitoring system and visibility, though the three most recent tests were passed without defects. A notable mileage anomaly occurs between 2023 and 2024, where the recorded mileage dropped from 105,620 to 98,568.
The RAV4 generally maintains a solid reputation with an average MOT pass rate of 85.7%, though it is prone to wear on shock absorbers and brake discs.
