2009 Toyota Avensis 1.8L Petrol · FN59 OWH

This Toyota Avensis is in a stable roadworthy condition with a highly consistent maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 March 2026 at 97,998 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a three-year streak of flawless MOT results dating back to March 2023, suggesting the vehicle is currently well-maintained and free of immediate mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,765 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last decade, moving from 33,055 miles in February 2014 to 97,998 miles in March 2026. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps in the testing history that would suggest periods of neglect or undisclosed heavy use. Historical data shows only minor issues with consumable components. The vehicle failed on 1 March 2019 due to thin rear brake pads and again in April 2022 with thin front pads and a worn offside front lower suspension arm bush. These are typical wear-and-tear items for a car of this age. A failure in February 2014 for a sharp edge on the offside rear body indicates a previous minor impact, though this was resolved immediately. A buyer should verify that the suspension arm bush flagged in April 2022 was replaced rather than just monitored, as this is a common failure point. While the recent clean sheets are encouraging, the low annual mileage can sometimes lead to perished rubber seals or brake caliper seizing due to inactivity. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the brake discs for surface corrosion and the overall state of the suspension rubbers to ensure they have not hardened over time.
