2010 Toyota Urban Cruiser 1.4L Diesel · EX10 AEA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection data. The September 2025 test at 97,816 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a clean pass in September 2024 at 95,456 miles. This recent history suggests that previous mechanical issues have been addressed and the vehicle is currently maintaining a consistent standard of compliance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,114 miles per year. The records show steady usage from 31,262 miles in 2013 up to the current 97,816 miles. There is a notable period of higher usage between 2021 and 2022, where the mileage increased by nearly 14,000 miles in a single year, whereas the earlier years showed much more conservative annual distances. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system and tyres, as these have shown recurring issues. The October 2023 failure at 94,645 miles was significant, involving seriously weakened front and rear brake discs and four tyres below the legal limit. While the 2024 and 2025 tests show these issues were resolved, the 2022 advisory for thin brake pads and worn tyres suggests a pattern of running consumables close to their limit before addressing them. Physical inspection should focus on the condition of the brake discs and pads to ensure the 2023 failure was fully rectified with high-quality parts. Given the 2014 advisory regarding corrosion on the inner faces of the front brake discs, checking for excessive surface rust or uneven wear on the rotors is advisable. Additionally, verifying the current condition of the windscreen wipers and washer system is a prudent step, as these were previously flagged for insufficient performance.
