2005 Toyota RAV4 2.0L Petrol · FL55 USM

The 2005 Toyota RAV4 presents a currently roadworthy status following a pass at 107,404 miles on 5 September 2025, with the maintenance trend appearing broadly stable across the recorded history. The vehicle carries no advisories or defects across any of its five listed tests. Two failed entries on 29 August 2025 at 107,270 miles and 7 August 2023 at 90,847 miles show no recorded defects, indicating administrative or presentation failures rather than mechanical faults, with immediate passes logged days later on both occasions. Annual mileage averages roughly 5,114 miles against the vehicle's 21-year life, a low figure for its age. The record shows steady accumulation: 90,855 miles in August 2023, 98,698 miles in August 2024, and 107,404 miles by September 2025, equating to about 8,000 miles per year over the logged span. Such low overall use suggests prolonged standing periods are plausible, though the clean test outcomes give no evidence of neglect or deferred consumable replacement. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and the likelihood of rubber perishing from intermittent use. The absence of corrosion or structural integrity advisories in the MOT data is reassuring for a two-decade-old chassis, yet DVSA tests do not strip panels. Verify the reason for the two zero-defect failures, as repeated short-interval fail-pass pairs hint at lapsed paperwork or owner oversight rather than workshop neglect. Confirm tyre sidewall condition and exhaust emissions at point of sale, since these items escape the historical record entirely.
