2014 Toyota Hilux 2.5L Diesel · GY14 GWE

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted in June 2025 at 38,453 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects or advisories. This follows a string of clean passes over the previous three years, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets all regulatory requirements without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old Hilux, averaging approximately 3,200 miles per annum. Between June 2021 at 25,721 miles and June 2025 at 38,453 miles, the vehicle covered only 12,732 miles. This low-usage pattern suggests the truck has primarily seen short trips, which preserves the drivetrain and engine components. However, such low annual mileage can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or moisture ingress in brake fluid, which are not always captured in a standard MOT test. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on components typically affected by the vehicle's low-use history. The 2021 test flagged nearside and offside rear tyres worn to the legal limit, and while these were likely replaced since, the buyer should check for dry rot or cracking on the sidewalls due to age. Given the low mileage, it is vital to inspect the chassis for surface corrosion, as stationary vehicles can accumulate more rust than those regularly driven regularly. Additionally, verify the suspension bushes and brake caliper movement to ensure the lack of use has not caused seizing or perished perished.
