2005 Toyota RAV-4 2.0L Diesel · CW05 EHB

The vehicle currently holds no valid roadworthiness status. The sole DVSA entry is a failed test dated 4 November 2021 at 127,869 miles, with no defects recorded by the tester. This single failure, now over four and a half years old relative to today's date, shows no maintained or improving trend and leaves the present condition entirely unverified. The recorded odometer reading of 127,869 miles against a 2005 build gives an average of roughly 6,089 miles per year, which is typical for the age. The sparse history offers only one data point, so no rapid accumulation or standing periods can be evidenced. The lack of any further tests since late 2021 strongly implies the RAV-4 has been off the road or untaxed for an extended period. A buyer must treat this 21-year-old Toyota as unroadworthy until proven otherwise. The 2021 failure with no listed defects suggests an administrative or unrecorded fault; the tester may have flagged a missing component or refused the test. Given the age and dormancy, expect degraded rubber suspension bushes, corroded brake discs, seized calipers, and structural underbody rust. Prior to any purchase, a physical inspection should confirm chassis integrity, exhaust emissions, and that all lighting and tyres meet minimum legal limits. The absence of advisories in the record provides no reassurance, only a gap in documented care.
