2002 Toyota Alphard 3.0L Petrol · BA02 AEY

This Toyota Alphard presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 February 2026 at 78,911 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed on the same day at 78,910 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative failure rather than a mechanical deficiency. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 24 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,288 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained consistent, with 2,126 miles added between February 2023 and January 2024, and 2,129 miles added between January 2024 and January 2025. This steady, low-volume usage suggests the car has not suffered from prolonged periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished seals. The MOT history is unusually clean, showing no advisories or failures across several years. While this indicates a well-maintained vehicle, the absence of any flagged wear on consumables like brake discs, suspension bushes, or tyres is rare for a car of this age. A buyer should specifically inspect the underbody for structural corrosion and check the condition of the rubber components, as these often degrade due to age regardless of low mileage. Verification of the service history is essential to ensure the engine oil and coolant have been changed regularly. Given the lack of recorded faults, the primary focus during a physical inspection should be on the health of the drivetrain and the integrity of the chassis to confirm the MOT record reflects the actual mechanical state of the vehicle.
