2018 Toyota C-HR 1.2L Petrol · CV68 ALO

The Toyota C-HR presents as roadworthy following the most recent MOT test on 10 April 2025 at 69,595 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend across the available history stays stable, with no mechanical advisories or faults flagged at any stage. The vehicle failed twice on administrative grounds, on 7 February 2023 at 34,323 miles and again on 8 April 2025 at 69,594 miles, yet both failures show no defects logged and were followed by passes on the same day or two days later. Mileage progression reveals a clean but sparse early record. From the first entry on 7 February 2023 at 34,323 miles to the 9 April 2024 pass at 48,867 miles, the car covered 14,544 miles in just over fourteen months. The jump to 69,595 miles by 10 April 2025 adds 20,728 miles in twelve months, pushing annual use to around 20,700 miles and well above the approximate 8,700 miles per year averaged since 2018. Prior to February 2023 the ledger is blank, leaving the earliest five years unverified. No recurring mechanical faults appear in the DVSA data, so the buyer should treat the clean sheet as a prompt for independent verification rather than assurance. The same-day fail-and-pass entries imply documentation or identity mismatches at the testing station; confirm the failure reasons via DVLA before purchase. In person, scrutinise suspension bushes for play, examine coil springs for fractures, check brake discs for lip wear and calipers for binding, and assess subframe corrosion despite the absence of advisories. Previous owners kept the mechanical record unblemished, yet the duplicated test entries at identical mileages indicate a tendency to present the car for rapid re-tests rather than repair. A buyer should still commission a pre-purchase inspection to measure brake friction material and tyre tread depth, as these consumables fall outside MOT pass criteria when above legal minimum.
