2014 Toyota RAV4 2.2L Diesel · FG14 ACU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a history of consistent clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 09 August 2025 at 120,863 miles resulted with no defects, indicating that the car is currently meeting all statutory safety requirements. While a failure occurred in July 2024, the subsequent pass a month later suggests that any identified issues were addressed promptly rather than representing a chronic trend of mechanical neglect. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a twelve-year-old Toyota SUV, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Data shows a significant interval between December 2021 and August 2023, where the vehicle covered 6,714 miles over twenty months. Since then, the rate of accumulation has accelerated, with 24,249 miles recorded between the August 2023 and August 2025 tests. This reflects regular use in recent years which is generally beneficial for engine health but places predictable wear on drivetrain-related consumables and suspension components. Given the clean nature of the two most recent records, a buyer should focus their in-person inspection on common high-mileage wear points for this generation of RAV4. Examine the control arm bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these often degrade around the 120,000-mile mark. Check the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear and inspect the underside for surface corrosion, particularly around the exhaust mounting points and rear rails. The lack of structural advisories in the history suggests the chassis has remained well-protected, but a physical check of rubber seals and fluid leaks remains necessary to ensure no degradation has occurred between the annual MOT tests.
