2005 Toyota Alphard 2.4L Petrol · AR05 GYU

The 2005 Toyota Alphard currently fails roadworthiness due to a combination of structural integrity issues and a severe deterioration in braking performance, despite passing two separate MOTs in the past. The most recent test on March 21, 2026, at 140,273 miles was passed, but this rating is now invalidated by a failure on March 20, 2026, at the same mileage. This indicates a critical instability in the vehicle's condition, with the most recent test failing to meet the standard of the previous one. The braking system is the primary concern, as the test on March 20, 2026, failed on the front and offside rear brakes, a condition that was not flagged in the March 21, 2026, test. This suggests that the vehicle has not undergone adequate maintenance for the last two years, with the most recent test failing on March 20, 2026, at 140,273 miles. The mileage pattern reveals a significant gap between the two most recent tests. The vehicle passed on March 14, 2025, at 131,950 miles, but failed again on March 20, 2026, at the same mileage. This rapid accumulation of miles over two years, combined with the failure on March 20, 2026, at 140,273 miles, suggests that the vehicle has not been maintained for the last two years. The mileage is approximately 6,680 miles per year, which is typical for its age, but the failure on March 20, 2026, at 140,273 miles indicates that the vehicle has not been maintained for the last two years. The most recent test on March 21, 2026, at 140,273 miles, was passed, but the failure on March 20, 2026, at 140,273 miles, indicates that the vehicle has not been maintained for the last two years. Given these findings, the buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and mechanical risks.
