2002 Toyota Corolla 1.4L Petrol · GY02 AOG

The 2022‑01‑27 MOT at 117,256 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle’s current roadworthiness status remains stable. No subsequent tests are documented, so the maintenance record shows no evidence of worsening or improving conditions; the single pass suggests consistent upkeep up to that point. At 24 years old, the 117,256‑mile odometer reading equates to roughly 4,900 miles per year, a rate considerably lower than typical for a vehicle of this age. The absence of earlier MOT entries means the record provides no insight into mileage accumulation patterns, but the low annual mileage implies the car may have spent extended periods stationary or been driven lightly. Consequently, the data is sparse yet clean, offering limited indication of accelerated wear. A buyer should therefore focus on inspecting the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or corrosion, examine the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and assess the chassis for structural rust or damage. The exhaust system should be checked for leaks or excessive corrosion, and the tyre tread depth evaluated, as these items often reveal long‑term neglect despite a clean MOT. Overall, the vehicle appears roadworthy, but a thorough in‑person inspection of these mechanical components is essential before purchase.
