2014 Toyota Prius 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · FJ64 OCP

The 2014 Toyota Prius presents a currently roadworthy status with a clean pass recorded on 23 March 2026 at 172,291 miles and no defects listed. The maintenance trend appears stable across the recent cycle, with the two most recent annual tests showing clear passes and no advisories on suspension, brakes, or structural corrosion. The vehicle carries no outstanding mechanical flags from the official record. Mileage stands high for a twelve-year-old car at 172,291 miles, averaging roughly 14,358 miles per year. The record shows steep accumulation between tests: 106,406 miles on 11 March 2024 rising to 140,322 miles by 13 March 2025, then jumping to 172,291 miles by March 2026. Two failed tests on 11 March 2024 and 12 March 2025 list no defects, implying administrative or presentational rejections rather than mechanical faults, though the same-day resubmissions suggest minor paperwork or identification issues at the centre. Given the sparse history with zero advisories across four passes, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable wear items. At this mileage, hybrid drivetrain isolation, front suspension bushes, and brake disc wear warrant physical measurement. The high annual use points to prolonged motorway or fleet-style operation, which typically spares urban suspension abuse but accelerates tyre and caliper wear. No recurring structural or mechanical defects emerge from the DVSA data, so the record implies consistent basic upkeep rather than deferred maintenance. A pre-purchase check should confirm underbody corrosion levels and hybrid battery state, as neither appears in the MOT entries but both carry risk at 172,000 miles.
