2014 Toyota Hilux 3.0L Diesel · CU11 RUP

The Toyota Hilux presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 10 February 2026 at 128,759 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. The single failure on 6 February 2024 at 118,741 miles was rectified and the vehicle passed the very next day on 7 February 2024, again with no defects listed. This pattern indicates consistent upkeep rather than neglected faults. The recorded mileage sits at a typical level for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 10,730 miles per year. The odometer moved from 108,881 miles at the February 2023 test to 118,769 miles by February 2024, then 123,596 miles in February 2025 and 128,759 miles in February 2026. Annual accumulation stayed near 5,000 to 10,000 miles with no sudden jumps or dormant periods. The MOT history is sparse on advisories, showing no flagged wear on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion across the five entries. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underside corrosion, as the DVSA record lists no advisories but a Hilux of this age and mileage commonly develops chassis rust in hidden sections. The brake discs, coil springs, and suspension arms warrant hands-on checks despite the clean test outcomes. The 2024 failure with no defects recorded suggests an administrative or emissions measurement issue rather than a mechanical fault, though confirming the rectification paperwork is prudent. Given the absence of recurring advisories, previous owners appear to have maintained the vehicle to pass standard without deferred consumable replacement. The clean run from 2023 to 2026 implies basic servicing kept pace with use. Pre-purchase checks should focus on items the MOT does not deeply assess, namely drivetrain wear, differential condition, and interior electrical function.
