2011 Toyota Avensis 2.0L Diesel · FE61 DPZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 29 September 2023 at 141,991 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car met minimum standards at that time. While a failure occurred just eight days prior on 21 September 2023 at nearly identical mileage, the lack of recorded defects for that failure suggests either an administrative error or a minor issue rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,466 miles per year. Between September 2020 and September 2023, the car covered 17,657 miles, showing a steady usage pattern of roughly 5,885 miles annually during that period. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation which often leads to seized and rubber degradation. The absence of recorded advisories across the five-year snapshot suggests the previous owners maintained a proactive approach to preventative maintenance. Given the clean nature of the digital record, a physical inspection should focus on standard age-related wear rather than recurring faults. Because the record does not flag suspension bushes or brake components, the buyer should manually check for corrosion on the sills and subframe, which are common on vehicles of this era. One should also verify the condition of the brake discs and tyre treads, as the MOT only tests these to a legal minimum threshold. Since the last MOT was performed nearly three years ago as of June 2026, the vehicle is currently overdue for its annual test and requires an immediate inspection to confirm its current mechanical integrity.
