2017 Toyota C-HR 1.8L Hybrid electric · FX67 YNB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive ownership pattern. While it passed its most recent test on 22 January 2026 at 102,197 miles, it failed just five days prior due to critical issues including a coolant leak, dangerously thin rear brake pads, and worn front tyres. This sequence suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when forced by an MOT failure, rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,300 miles per year. There is a significant gap in data between February 2024 at 51,271 miles and the January 2026 test at 102,197 miles, representing over 50,000 miles covered in just two years. This rapid acceleration in usage explains the accelerated wear seen on consumables, specifically the state of the tyres and brake components noted in the most recent failure report. A buyer must scrutinise the cooling system to ensure the leak identified in January 2026 was properly rectified, as persistent leaks lead to engine head gasket failure or overheating. The recurring advisory for front tyres worn on the edges across both 2023 and 2026 suggests a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require a professional inspection. Additionally, the rear brake system should be checked for uneven wear or seizing, as the pads were allowed to run down to the 1.5mm limit before being flagged.
