Our Verdict
A recommended purchase for those seeking
When inspecting this vehicle, verify the service history to ensure the hybrid system has been checked according to manufacturer intervals. Specifically, ask if the front brake discs and the offside rear anti-roll bar linkage—both noted as worn or cracking in December 2024—were ever replaced or repaired.
Negotiate based on the current state of the tyres and the condition of the nearside wing mirror cover, which was flagged as damaged in the most recent MOT. Ensure there is documented evidence of the repairs made to resolve the November 2025 failure.
The 1.8L hybrid powertrain is designed for high fuel efficiency, particularly in urban environments, which helps keep monthly fuel spend low. Insurance groups for the C-HR are typically moderate, and the hybrid nature often results in competitive road tax bands.
Maintenance costs are generally predictable for this model, although hybrid-specific components require specialist attention as the vehicle ages. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing, is approximately £1,100-£1,400.
Check the front tyres for consistent tread depth and quality, as both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit in November 2025. Inspect the nearside front wing mirror outer cover for the damage noted in the 2025 MOT and ensure the side repeater is functioning correctly.
Pay close attention to the suspension during a test drive; listen for knocks or rattles from the rear, referencing the 2024 advisory regarding the anti-roll bar linkage pin and bush. Finally, check the condition of the front brake discs for excessive wear or scoring.
This silver 2017 Toyota C-HR Hybrid has recorded 66,723 miles, placing it slightly below the average mileage for its age. While it had one MOT failure in November 2025, the issues were limited to tyres and a side repeater. Earlier records from 2022 and 2024 show a generally consistent testing history.
The Toyota C-HR maintains a strong reputation for reliability, with an average MOT pass rate of 88.4% across 96,074 analysed vehicles.
