2013 London Taxis INT TX4 Style Auto 2.5L Diesel · LO13 PVF

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its most recent 2025-11-04 MOT at 194,193 miles. Previous tests from 2024-10-31 (174,556 miles) and 2024-05-24 (164,130 miles) also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. The single 2024-05-22 failure at 164,092 miles recorded no defects, suggesting a potential administrative error or minor technical anomaly. No recurring mechanical or structural concerns are evident in the data, though the lack of advisories limits insight into gradual wear. The vehicle’s 194,193-mile total over 13 years equates to 14,938 annual miles, a high rate for its age that accelerates wear on consumables and critical systems. Notable gaps between MOTs include 11 months between the 2024-05-22 test and the subsequent 2024-10-31 inspection, during which mileage rose by 10,426 miles. The 2025-05-22 test at 184,535 miles followed a 7-month interval, with 9,979 miles added. These patterns suggest frequent use but no overt signs of neglect in the recorded history. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension, brakes, and exhaust system, as high mileage increases risk in these areas. The absence of corrosion reports in MOTs does not preclude hidden rust, particularly in the taxi’s bodywork. Check for binding calipers, uneven brake disc wear, and suspension bushing degradation, which may not trigger immediate failures but could compromise safety. Verify the exhaust system’s integrity, as prolonged use may lead to leaks or structural fatigue. The vehicle’s maintenance record lacks depth, so physical inspection remains critical to confirm its condition.
