2017 Toyota Prius Plus 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · BH17 LFS

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on March 5 2026 at 160,805 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This indicates a very stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed any mechanical or safety issues before they could result in a failure during the DVSA testing process. The mileage data reveals a significant shift in usage starting in early 2023. Between February 2023 and March 2023, the vehicle covered only 425 miles, yet the usage accelerated dramatically thereafter. From March 2023 to March 2026, the car clocked over 96,000 miles in just a three-year period. This current average of nearly 32,000 miles per year is high for a nine-year-old Prius, suggesting heavy motorway use which typically places specific stresses on the hybrid cooling system, suspension bushings, and braking components. While the MOT record is remarkably clean of advisories, a physical inspection must focus on high-mileage components prone to accelerated wear. A buyer should specifically inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs fatigue due to the high annual mileage. Given the rapid accumulation, checking the state of the brake calipers for binding and thinning of discs is essential. Additionally, the condition of the hybrid battery cooling fan and the inverter coolant should be verified, as these elements are not covered by the standard MOT test but are critical to the longevity of a vehicle at this mileage level.
