2010 Toyota Avensis 1.8L Petrol · FH10 UNN

The 2010 Toyota Avensis presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 18 November 2025 at 125,020 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed clean. The lone blemish is a failed test on 17 November 2023 at 101,232 miles that recorded no defects, immediately followed by a pass on the same day at identical mileage, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,800 miles, typical for a sixteen-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 95,104 miles in November 2022, 101,232 in November 2023, 110,083 in November 2024, and 125,020 in November 2025. The jump between the 2024 and 2025 tests covers about 14,900 miles, nearly double the prior yearly average, yet no advisories or wear-related defects appeared. The DVSA data is sparse on fault detail, with every pass listing no defects and no advisories logged across the five-year span. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and the higher mileage run in the last year. The clean MOT history offers no evidence of corrosion or structural integrity issues, but test stations vary in advisory strictness. Verify the 2023 same-day fail-pass was clerical and not a concealed defect by checking the failure reason on the DVLA portal. Given the unbroken pass record and ordinary mileage, previous owners appear to have kept basic upkeep current. The absence of recurring advisories suggests no worsening mechanical trend. Prior to purchase, confirm tyre condition and exhaust emissions through a independent mechanic's appraisal.
