2013 Toyota Priuscx 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · KE13 UTU

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 26 January 2026, confirming its roadworthiness. The maintenance history is exceptionally clean, showing a consistent trend of passing inspections without any recorded defects or advisories. While the vehicle failed its initial attempts in both 2024 and 2026, these failures occurred only days before the successful retests and lacked specific defect codes, suggesting these were likely administrative issues or minor rectifications rather than underlying mechanical failures. At 76,802 miles over thirteen years, the vehicle averages approximately 5,900 miles per annum, which is well below the national average for a car of this age. The mileage accumulation has remained steady, with roughly 8,900 miles added between the May 2023 and December 2024 tests, followed by a further 7,797 miles leading up to the most recent inspection. This usage pattern indicates regular, light operation rather than prolonged periods of inactivity, which is generally favourable for the longevity of hybrid battery systems and seals. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on components that typically suffer from age-related degradation rather than high-mileage wear. Given the lack of MOT advisories, the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs should be checked for signs of perishing or corrosion, as these rubber and metal components deteriorate over time regardless of mileage. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles often exhibit light rust on the friction surfaces from infrequent use. While the MOT record suggests a well-maintained vehicle, a visual check of the undercarriage for structural corrosion remains a prudent step for any vehicle of this vintage.
