2021 CPL Hilux CPL Mewp 2.4L Diesel · KX71 DLE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean MOT pass on 27 August 2025 at 66,409 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the owner consistently addressed immediate failures identified during the testing process. While the 2025 test initially resulted in a failure regarding tyres, the subsequent pass just twenty-four hours later indicates a reactive approach to resolving safety-critical defects rather than allowing them to persist. At 66,409 miles over five years, this Hilux has averaged approximately 13,282 miles per year. This is higher than the national average for light commercial vehicles and suggests consistent use, likely for work or long-distance duties. The interval between the September 2024 test at 52,337 miles and the August 2025 test at 66,409 miles shows an accumulation of 14,072 miles in just eleven months. This high mileage rate puts accelerated stress on wear components, particularly the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems, which is evidenced by the uneven wear on the front tyres noted in the 2025 failure. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension and wheel alignment. The 2025 failure noted the offside front tyre was worn specifically on the inner edge, which often points to tracking issues or worn ball joints and suspension bushes. Given the high mileage, it is essential to check the brake discs for uneven thinning and inspect the chassis for fluid leaks. While the MOT record does not show structural corrosion or mechanical failures, the recurring tyre issues suggest that preventative maintenance is only performed when a component reaches a legal limit.
