2004 Toyota Corolla 1.8L Petrol · CW04 CNZ

The 2004 Toyota Corolla passed its most recent MOT on 25 November 2021 at 131,358 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a stable maintenance trend at the point of its last official test. The record shows no recurring advisories or escalating faults across the supplied entries, and the vehicle has remained roadworthy per DVSA data for over four and a half years from that test to today. The odometer stood at 131,358 miles on the November 2021 pass, equating to roughly 5,971 miles per year across the car's 22-year life. This is low for a vehicle of this age and suggests either light annual use or extended periods off the road. The record is sparse: a failed test on 24 November 2021 at 131,334 miles shows no recorded defects, followed one day later by a clean pass at 131,358 miles, a 24-mile gap that implies an administrative or unlogged correction rather than mechanical work. Given the clean November 2021 result and absence of flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust issues, the MOT history alone reveals no active mechanical concerns. The low mileage and standing time typical of such use mean a buyer should still inspect for perished rubber components, seized calipers, and structural rust on sills or subframes that a test four years ago would not capture today. Verify the car has not been driven unlawfully since the 2021 certificate lapsed, and commission a current independent inspection of tyres, wiper blades, and underbody condition before purchase. The previous owner's record shows basic compliance but offers no evidence of proactive upkeep beyond the statutory minimum.
