AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2025-10-24 MOT for this 2009 Toyota Avensis recorded 246,195 miles, with multiple corrosion issues, oil leaks, and worn suspension components. The rear subframe, sills, and suspension joints showed significant deterioration, including severely damaged dust covers on track rods, suspension arms, and outer suspension rods. Tyres were near legal limits, and headlamps had minor lens issues. These findings indicate ongoing wear in critical areas. Recurring corrosion in the rear chassis, suspension, and brake components appears to be a persistent issue. The 2023 MOTs noted rear trailing arms, suspension parts, and chassis corrosion, while the 2025 test highlighted similar problems. Oil leaks from the engine and gearbox areas were also repeated, though not excessive. Suspension joint dust covers deteriorated consistently across multiple tests, suggesting aging seals and potential long-term wear. The trend shows worsening conditions, particularly in corrosion and suspension integrity. The 2025 MOT listed more severe issues than earlier tests, such as widespread chassis corrosion and tyre wear.
