2007 Toyota Auris 2.2L Diesel · CK07 AFU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, having passed its most recent MOT on 18 June 2025 at 224,720 miles. The absence of defects or advisories in the latest test suggests the car is in a fair state of repair for its age. The mileage history shows a massive and irregular increase between June 2024 and June 2025. The odometer jumped from 127,155 miles to 224,720 miles in a single year, representing nearly 97,565 miles of use. This extreme surge deviates sharply from the previous pattern, where the vehicle covered only 11,314 miles between March 2022 and June 2024. Such rapid accumulation in a short window suggests a period of intense commercial use or long-distance commuting. A buyer must scrutinize the drivetrain and suspension components during a physical inspection. While the MOT record is clean, the sudden addition of nearly 100,000 miles in twelve months puts immense pressure on the engine, gearbox, and clutch. Check for excessive play in the steering rack and wear in the suspension bushes, as these typically degrade under high-mileage stress. Inspect the underbody for corrosion and check the brake discs for thinning. The lack of recorded advisories over several years is unusual for a nineteen-year-old vehicle with this mileage. Verify that the service history supports the recent mileage spike, specifically regarding oil changes and timing belt intervals, to ensure the mechanical integrity has not been compromised by the recent heavy usage.
