2013 Toyota Avensis 2.0L Diesel · FL13 BFE

The Toyota Avensis presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 12 September 2025 at 139,650 miles, where the tester recorded no defects and issued a pass. The maintenance trend is stable, with no advisories or mechanical faults logged across the three annual examinations held in 2023, 2024, and 2025. The vehicle shows no worsening condition and no recurring defects requiring corrective action. Mileage accumulation is consistent with typical use for a 2013 registration. The record shows 114,614 miles at the 21 September 2023 test, rising to 121,647 miles by 24 September 2024 and reaching 139,650 miles at the 12 September 2025 pass. That equates to roughly 7,000 to 18,000 miles per year between tests, close to the 10,742 annual average for the model's age. The DVSA entries are sparse and clean, with no corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake disc scoring, or exhaust emission failures noted at any stage. The only anomaly is the pair of immediate fail-and-pass sequences logged one day apart: a failure on 11 September 2025 at 139,649 miles with no defects recorded, then a pass next day, and the same pattern at 24 to 27 September 2024. This suggests administrative or documentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault, as no defects were cited on either failure. A buyer should still verify the V5C and test certificate to confirm no omitted data. In person, the buyer should confirm structural integrity underneath, check coil springs and suspension bushes for age-related fatigue, and inspect brake calipers for binding given the car's 13-year life. The clean record implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but a pre-purchase inspection remains sensible on any high-mileage saloon.
