2013 Toyota Sienna XLEAW1 Sienna 3.5L Petrol · HT62 PBY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent MOT test in July 2025 at 102,854 miles resulted in an initial failure due to an ineffective windscreen wiper and thin rear brake pads. While the vehicle passed upon immediate retest, the recurrence of thin rear brake pads across multiple years suggests that the previous owner only addressed mechanical components once they reached a point of failure or advisory threshold. At 102,854 miles over 13 years, the Sienna averages approximately 7,900 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a large MPV of this age. The mileage data shows steady progression, with roughly 10,000 miles covered between July 2024 and July 2025. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has not been subject to long periods of stagnation, though the low annual mileage relative to the vehicle's age increases the likelihood of degradation in rubber-based components regardless of actual tread depth. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system and rubber components. The rear brake pads were flagged as wearing thin in 2022, 2023, and 2025, indicating a potential issue with sticking calipers or simply a lack of scheduled service intervals. Furthermore, the record shows a persistent history of perishing and cracking tyres across all corners from 2022 through 2024. This pattern indicates that tyres are being run until they age rather than wear, which can compromise grip and structural integrity of the rubber even if the tread depth appears sufficient. The absence of the third row and rear passenger seats noted in the 2024 and 2025 tests should be verified to ensure all components are present and not damaged from removal. Given the age of the vehicle and the recurring minor failures, a physical inspection should also check for chassis corrosion and condition of suspension bushings, as these areas were not highlighted in the records but are common points of failure on high-age vehicles of this era.
