2020 Toyota Prius 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · FG20 KKO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a period of inconsistency. The most recent MOT conducted on 1 July 2025 at 73,720 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that previous minor issues have been addressed. While the history shows intermittent failures, the overall trend across the last three successful tests suggests that the mechanical and safety components are currently meeting statutory standards without immediate concern. The Prius has covered 73,720 miles over six years, averaging approximately 12,287 miles per annum. This usage level is higher than the national average for a passenger car, suggesting consistent use rather than long periods of inactivity. The record shows a significant burst of activity, with 9,160 miles covered between August 2024 and February 2025, and another 9,379 miles covered between February 2025 and July 2025. This rapid accumulation indicates the vehicle is regularly driven, which is generally beneficial for the hybrid battery system and brake components. The recurring failures in August 2024 and February 2025 regarding insufficient windscreen washer liquid indicate a past lack of attention to basic non-mechanical maintenance. However, the absence of any advisories for corrosion, suspension wear, or brake components across all recorded tests is a positive indicator. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as the high annual mileage puts increased stress on these parts. Checking the condition of the brake discs and the thickness of the pads is also advisable to ensure the high mileage hasn't led to accelerated wear of the braking system.
