2018 Toyota Prius 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · FJ18 KXC

The 2018 Toyota Prius presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 December 2025 at 116,266 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following another fault-free pass on 15 August 2025 at 114,336 miles. Across every recorded MOT since first registration, the vehicle has passed without advisories or failures, indicating consistent statutory compliance and no escalating mechanical concerns. Mileage data shows an unusual accumulation pattern for an eight-year-old vehicle. The car sat nearly unused until October 2022 with only 1,524 miles recorded, then rose sharply to 39,040 miles by September 2023 and 84,994 miles by August 2024. A large jump to 114,336 miles by August 2025 and 116,266 by December 2025 reflects roughly 30,000 miles per year over the last two years, well above the implied 14,533 annual average. The early dormant period followed by intense use suggests a change of ownership or fleet deployment rather than private light use. Given the absence of recorded advisories on brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions, no specific recurring faults demand correction from the history alone. The buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the hybrid drivetrain and braking system, as high annual mileage accelerates wear on calipers, discs, and HV battery cooling. Verify service records align with the post-2022 usage spike. The clean MOT trail implies previous keepers addressed roadworthiness items before each test, though the sparse early mileage means long-standing components like tyres and fluid seals may now require renewal despite no tester flags. Physical checks of underbody structural integrity and suspension joints remain prudent given the recent high-mileage phase.
