2006 Toyota Corolla 1.8L Petrol · GR06 CXV

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 9 February 2026 at 118,731 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent five year trend of clean passes, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has suffered very little mechanical degradation. The mileage is low for a twenty year old car, averaging roughly 5,937 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and predictable over the last five years, growing from 111,845 miles in February 2022 to 118,731 miles by February 2026. This lack of erratic mileage spikes suggests the car has been used for light, regular duties rather than sitting idle for extended periods, which typically helps preserve rubber seals and battery health. The absence of any advisories or failures since February 2022 is unusual for a vehicle of this vintage. While the record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the chassis and suspension mounting points for corrosion, as surface rust often goes unmentioned until it becomes a structural failure. Checking the condition of the brake discs and tyres is also advisable to ensure they have not perished due to age rather than wear. Given the lack of recorded faults, there are no recurring mechanical trends to flag. The primary focus for a physical inspection should be on the fluid conditions and the state of the rubber components, such as suspension bushes and coolant hoses, which can degrade over two decades regardless of the low mileage.
