2004 Toyota Alphard 2.4L Petrol · GR54 EMX

The vehicle's MOT history shows an inconsistent pattern of compliance, with the most recent test on 2 January 2026 resulting in a pass with no defects. This follows a failure on 31 December 2025, though the specific nature of that failure was not recorded. The record indicates a fluctuating trend where the vehicle alternates between passing and failing, suggesting intermittent issues rather than a steady decline in roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 106,498 miles is low for a 2004 model, averaging approximately 4,841 miles per year. While the data does not show rapid mileage accumulation between the recorded tests, the low annual usage can sometimes lead to issues related to vehicles being stationary for extended periods. The gaps between tests are relatively standard, with the 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 entries occurring at roughly twelve-month intervals. Because the MOT records for the failures in November 2023 and December 2025 do not specify the exact mechanical faults, a physical inspection is necessary to identify previous problem areas. A buyer should focus on checking for signs of age-related deterioration that often affect low-mileage, older vehicles, such as perished rubber components, suspension bushes, and potential corrosion on the chassis or exhaust system. The lack of recorded advisories in the recent passes suggests that no immediate consumable wear was flagged by the tester. However, the presence of multiple failures necessitates a thorough check of the braking system, including brake discs and calipers, as well as the structural integrity of the underside to ensure no underlying issues were bypassed or resolved only temporarily. buying_score: 55 risk_level: Medium.
