2010 Toyota RAV4 2.2L Diesel · FT60 AOC

This Toyota RAV4 has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness over the past five MOT cycles, with no defects recorded in any of the tests conducted between November 2021 and November 2025. The most recent inspection on 6 November 2025, at 138,769 miles, confirms the vehicle remains compliant with current UK standards, though the absence of advisories or defects does not preclude underlying wear. The pattern of annual MOT passes without fail suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though this does not guarantee all components—particularly those not subject to MOT scrutiny—remain in optimal condition. The mileage progression indicates steady usage, averaging approximately 8,673 miles annually, which aligns with typical expectations for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps or abrupt spikes in mileage between tests, though the data does not extend beyond the 2025 cycle. Without pre-MOT servicing records, it is impossible to confirm whether interval maintenance—such as suspension bush replacements, timing belt checks, or differential fluid changes—has been adhered to. The recorded mileage suggests moderate wear on high-friction components, but the lack of MOT advisories implies these have not yet reached failure thresholds. A prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension system, particularly the coil springs and bushes, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The absence of MOT advisories on brakes does not rule out uneven wear or binding calipers, so a thorough check of the hydraulic system and disc thickness is essential. Corrosion should be scrutinised at wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as these areas are critical to structural integrity. Additionally, the exhaust system—though not flagged—may require verification for leaks or excessive rust, especially if the vehicle has been exposed to salted roads. The engine bay should be inspected for oil leaks, as these often indicate worn seals or bearings that could escalate into costly failures.
