2002 Toyota Corolla 1.6L Petrol · GY02 AFA

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection data. The test conducted on 4 November 2023 at 101,671 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that all mechanical and structural components met the required safety standards. While the history shows intermittent failures in previous years, the transition to a clean pass in the latest record suggests that the previous owner addressed identified issues and maintained the vehicle effectively. At 24 years old, the recorded 101,671 miles represent a notably low annual average of approximately 4,236 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with 8,843 miles covered between the November 2021 and November 2022 tests, and another 9,124 miles covered between November 2022 and 2023. This low mileage often correlates with less wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it also increases the risk of rubber degradation and brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that failed in 2021 and 2022, although the provided summary does not list the specific defect codes. Given the age of the Corolla, a thorough check for structural corrosion is essential on the sills, wheel arches, and floor pans where Toyota models are prone to fail over time. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and check the brake calipers for seizing, as low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from seized components due to lack of use.
