2022 Toyota Corolla Design HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · FT22 ADO

The July 2026 MOT at 30,009 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming the vehicle’s current roadworthiness. The preceding July 2025 test at 23,123 miles also passed without issues, indicating a stable maintenance trend rather than a worsening or improving pattern. Two consecutive passes in a year suggest the previous owner maintained basic service intervals and addressed any minor advisories promptly. Mileage progression from 23,123 to 30,009 miles over the 12‑month interval represents an increase of 6,886 miles, which sits slightly below the typical 7,500‑mile annual average for a four‑year‑old Corolla. This modest accumulation points to lighter than average usage or periods of inactivity, rather than rapid wear. The MOT record shows no gaps or missing tests, providing a clean, continuous data set for assessment. A buyer should closely inspect the tyre tread depth and pressure, brake disc condition, and suspension bushes for wear, as these consumables are not reflected in MOT advisories but are critical to long‑term reliability. The hybrid battery cooling system and associated high‑voltage cables merit a visual check for corrosion or fluid leaks, given the vehicle’s electrified drivetrain. Finally, a thorough examination of the under‑body for rust spots and exhaust mounting integrity will reveal any structural or corrosion issues that may have been missed in routine testing.
