2012 Toyota Land Cruiser LC3 D-4D Auto 3.0L Diesel · KIG 3976

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 7 August 2025 at 111,999 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This streak of passes suggests that the previous owners proactively maintained the vehicle and prevented the common mechanical failures often seen in SUVs of this age. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Between August 2022 and August 2025, the vehicle covered 16,127 miles, showing a steady and predictable accumulation of mileage rather than erratic usage patterns. There is a notable gap between the March 2021 test at 84,689 miles and the August 2022 test at 95,872 miles, representing a period of higher usage, but the overall annual average remains low enough to mitigate excessive wear on the D-4D engine and heavy-duty drivetrain components. While the digital record is clean, a physical inspection must focus on the structural integrity inherent to a Land Cruiser of this era. Given the age, the buyer should scrutinize the chassis for corrosion, particularly around the rear mounting points and side members, where salt and moisture often cause. The inspector should also check the suspension bushes and rubber bellows for cracking or tearing, as these components degrade over time regardless of low mileage. Checking for brake fluid leaks and verifying the condition of the calipers is also essential to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the current state of the braking system.
