2014 Toyota GT86 2.0L Petrol · AN02 RTN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in its most recent test on 16 May 2025 at 44,696 miles. This recent result indicates that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the 2024 test highlighted minor defects regarding brakes and tyres, the lack of advis in the 2025 record suggests the vehicle is currently maintained to a functional standard for road use. The mileage profile is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,725 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between June 2022 and May 2023, where the car covered roughly 7,400 miles, followed by more consistent annual intervals. Low mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine but can lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid stagnation. The mention of under covers fitted in June 2022 suggests the owner attempted to protect the chassis during periods of stationary storage. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system in person, given the offside front brake binding recorded in May 2024 and the twisted nearside front brake hose failure in June 2022. These faults suggest potential issues with caliper movement or poor assembly work that could recur if the vehicle sits for long periods. Additionally, check the suspension geometry and the condition of the rear tyres, as the 2024 record noted uneven wear on the edges, which often indicates alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. Given the low mileage, a close look at the underside for surface corrosion is also necessary to ensure that lack of use has not compromised structural integrity.
