2004 Toyota Corolla 1.4L Petrol · GY04 ADX

The Toyota Corolla presented a clean MOT pass on 7 June 2024 at 186,277 miles, yet that certificate lapsed over thirteen months ago relative to today's date of 16 July 2026. Maintenance trend across the available records reads stable, with no defects or advisories logged in any test from 2022 onward. The two failure entries dated 6 June 2022 at 175,462 miles and 7 June 2024 at 186,277 miles carry no recorded defects, indicating the mechanical condition cleared each time and the failures likely arose from administrative or presentation anomalies rather than wear. Odometer readings show restrained use for a two-decade-old vehicle. In the 7 June 2022 test at 175,501 miles, the Corolla then covered 5,487 miles to the 31 May 2023 pass at 180,988 miles, and a further 5,289 miles to the June 2024 pass. That steady ~5,300 miles per annum sits below the implied 8,467 mile yearly average for its age, suggesting gentle motoring. Pre-2022 history is absent from this extract, but the recent spacing of tests remains strictly annual with no mileage spikes or rapid accumulation. No tester flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion or exhaust emissions across these examinations. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and subframe rust, as a 22-year-old car with 186,277 miles often hides fatigue unseen by MOT checks. The repeated zero-defect passes imply previous owners kept basic upkeep current, though the unexplained failures warrant verification of the V5C and DVSA test logs. Tyres and wiper blades are minor consumables not reflected in the record and must be assessed firsthand.
