2013 Toyota Verso 1.8L Petrol · FJ13 OBB

The 2013 Toyota Verso presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 July 2025 at 103,174 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior three successful annual tests also closed clean. The brief failure logged on 7 August 2024 at 93,003 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, with the same-day pass confirming the vehicle was then compliant. Mileage accumulation sits close to typical use for a thirteen-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,936 miles per year. The record shows 74,153 miles in July 2022, 83,766 in August 2023, 93,003 in August 2024, and 103,174 by July 2025. Annual increments of around 9,000 to 10,000 miles reflect steady private or light-duty use with no standing periods or abrupt accumulation spikes. The DVSA data is sparse on advisories, showing no flagged wear across suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or corrosion at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills, subframes, and suspension mounts to confirm the absence of structural rust the MOT tester did not log. The clean advisory history suggests previous owners kept consumables and mechanical items within limits, yet coil springs, track-rod ends, and binding calipers can degrade without triggering a failure. Verify tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and fluid intervals against the odometer given the car now exceeds 100,000 miles. Given the unbroken pass pattern and ordinary mileage, this Verso shows no recurring defect trend requiring corrective action. The lack of recorded advisories implies disciplined upkeep, though independent confirmation of chassis integrity remains prudent before purchase.
