2019 Toyota Corolla 1.8L Hybrid electric · CC53 REV

This 2019 Toyota Corolla has a very low mileage profile, averaging only about 4,423 miles per year. While low mileage generally suggests less mechanical wear on the drivetrain, it can also indicate long periods of inactivity. In this case, the MOT history suggests the vehicle may have been sitting for extended periods, which often leads to rubber components degrading due to age rather than use. The most recent MOT from October 2025 shows the vehicle passed, but it highlights recurring issues with tyre condition. There is a clear pattern of tyres perishing and cracking, with defects recorded in 2023, 2024, and 2025. The trend shows that while the car is being driven infrequently, the rubber components are deteriorating. The 2025 test also noted damage to the offside upper windscreen. The mechanical condition trend appears to be worsening in terms of consumable maintenance. While the 2022 test was completely clean, subsequent tests have consistently flagged tyre degradation and, in 2023, pitted or scored brake discs. This confirms that the low usage is not preventing age-related deterioration of the tyres and braking surfaces.
