2022 Toyota Proace City Active 1.5L Diesel · DY71 XTM

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT test on 16 October 2025 at 88,254 miles with no defects recorded. This indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year, where a fault was identified. The lack of advisories on the latest report suggests that the owner addressed the immediate mechanical concerns flagged during the prior inspection. The mileage profile is significantly high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging over 22,000 miles per annum. Between the October 2024 test at 72,768 miles and the October 2025 test, the car covered 15,486 miles in just over twelve months. This rapid accumulation suggests consistent heavy-duty use, likely motorway or commercial commuting, which places accelerated stress on consumable components and high-wear mechanical parts compared to average private car patterns. A prospective buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system, as the October 2024 test flagged thin front brake pads at 72,768 miles. Given the high mileage covered since that test, the discs should be checked for scoring or thinning, and the calipers should be tested for binding. The high-frequency use also necessitates a thorough check of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of premature wear or fatigue that often manifest in vehicles reaching this mileage bracket.
