2022 Toyota C-HR GR Sport HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · DA22 VMP

The vehicle presents a stable and fully compliant roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT, conducted on 27 June 2025 at 36,435 miles, passed with zero defects, indicating no current mechanical or structural concerns at that test point. With only a single recorded test in the dataset, the maintenance trend is effectively neutral and stable, showing no recurring faults or emerging deterioration. The clean pass suggests the hybrid drivetrain, braking system, suspension components, and exhaust emissions were all within acceptable tolerances at the time of inspection. At roughly four years old with 36,435 miles recorded, the vehicle has covered approximately 9,109 miles per year, which sits squarely within typical annual usage for a car of this age. The MOT history is sparse, containing only the one entry from June 2025, so there is no prior mileage progression to analyse for gaps or rapid accumulation. The recorded mileage at that single test aligns with the stated current figure, meaning the vehicle has effectively stood still or seen negligible use in the twelve months since the certificate was issued. That extended period of low or zero mileage warrants attention, as prolonged standing can cause flat-spotting on tyres, moisture accumulation in brake fluid and the exhaust system, and potential deterioration of rubber suspension bushes and seals through lack of regular flexing. A prospective buyer should carry out a thorough in-person inspection focused on components that degrade through inactivity rather than use. Check the tyre sidewalls for perishing and the tread for uneven wear or flat-spotting from standing on one patch. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion, which is common after extended parking, and verify that the brake pedal feels firm and free of sponginess that could indicate fluid absorption of moisture. Inspect suspension bushes, particularly the front lower arm and rear trailing arm bushes, for perishing or cracking, and listen for clunks over speed bumps that might point to dry or deteriorated anti-roll bar links. The hybrid battery cooling intake and underbody should be checked for debris ingress and corrosion, while the exhaust system should be examined for condensation-related rust at the joints and seams. A short test drive at varying speeds will confirm whether the CVT transmission engages smoothly and whether the regenerative braking system transitions cleanly without hesitation or judder.
