2016 Toyota Prius 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · LM66 EAP

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status following the March 2026 test at 344,124 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend across the supplied history is stable, with the most recent two passed tests showing clean sheets. The September 2025 and March 2025 entries each show a failed test logged on the same date and mileage as a subsequent pass, with no defects recorded against either failure, indicating administrative or presentational anomalies rather than mechanical faults. Mileage stands at 344,124 on a ten-year-old car, averaging roughly 34,400 miles per year, which is high for a 2016 Prius. The record shows 260,027 miles at the March 2025 test, jumping to 307,485 by September 2025, then 344,124 by March 2026. That equates to around 47,000 miles in the six months to September 2025 and a further 36,600 by March 2026. Such accumulation points to sustained motorway or fleet-style use, placing elevated load on suspension bushes, drivetrain hybrids, and brake discs. The absence of advisories across all five entries is unusual at this mileage and suggests either rigorous pre-test preparation or that wear items were addressed before each examination. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the hybrid battery cooling system, front coil springs, and subframe corrosion, as high annual mileage accelerates structural fatigue not always visible in a pass result. Given the twin failed-then-passed logs at identical mileages, verify the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm no omitted defect data. The clean record at 344,124 miles does not negate the need for in-person checks on tyre sidewall cracking, binding calipers, and exhaust emissions under load.
