2016 Toyota Esquire 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · LJ66 PLV

The vehicle presents a highly positive roadworthiness profile with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted on 31 March 2026 at 80,543 miles passed with no defects or advisories. This follows a clean pass just five weeks prior on 5 March 2026 at 80,244 miles, indicating that the vehicle currently meets all regulatory standards and has received consistent attention in its recent history. With 80,543 miles recorded over ten years, the car averages approximately 8,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical annual usage for an MPV. The 300-mile interval between the two March 2026 tests suggests either a pre-purchase inspection or a re-test following a minor administrative adjustment. This low mileage accumulation relative to the age reduces the expected wear on drivetrain components and suspension assemblies typically associated with high-mileage vehicles. While the digital record shows no recurring mechanical failures, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to age-related degradation rather than wear. A buyer should check the condition of suspension bushes and rubber seals for cracking or tearing, as these can perish over time regardless of low mileage. Given the vehicle's clean history, verifying the brake discs for corrosion and checking the underbody integrity for surface rust will ensure the physical condition is as robust as the MOT records suggest.
