2025 Toyota C-HR Design HEV CVT Hybrid electric (clean) · LP74 HMD

The DVSA database shows no MOT record for this 2025 Toyota C‑HR Design HEV CVT, meaning the vehicle has not yet undergone a statutory test and there is no historic data from which to gauge a maintenance trend. Consequently a definitive assessment of whether the car’s condition is stable, deteriorating or improving cannot be made from MOT results alone; the on‑us inspection will need to supply the primary evidence of roadworthiness. Mileage for the vehicle is not supplied, so an evaluation of annual usage cannot be quantified. With the car being approximately one year old, a typical private‑owner mileage would fall in the range of 8‑12 000 mi per annum, whereas a low‑usage example might be well under 5 000 mi. In the absence of a recorded odometer reading the buyer should request a verified mileage figure from the seller, ideally corroborated by service stamps, fuel receipts or a full‑history report, to ensure the reading is not artificially low and to gauge wear expectations for components such as the hybrid battery, tyres and brake discs. Given the vehicle’s age and the lack of MOT data, the buyer should concentrate on time‑related inspections. Examine the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot or uneven wear that can develop even on low‑kilometre cars left stationary for long periods; check the tread depth and confirm that the tyres are no older than six years, as rubber deteriorates with age regardless of mileage. Inspect the 12‑volt auxiliary battery for corrosion on terminals and test its charge; a hybrid’s high‑voltage pack should be examined by a qualified technician for any fault codes, but a visual check for coolant leaks around the battery pack and for the condition of the cooling fan can reveal early issues. Verify that the brake discs and pads show no excessive surface rust, scoring or glazing, and that the calipers move freely without binding; a light, even pedal feel with no pulsation will indicate healthy hydraulic operation. Finally, review the service history for evidence of scheduled fluid changes – engine oil, coolant, brake fluid and hybrid coolant – as manufacturers typically recommend calendar‑based intervals for a vehicle of this vintage. Look for any signs of oil leaks around the oil pan, valve cover and CV joints, and listen for abnormal noises such as clunking from the suspension bushes or coil springs, which can appear when a car has been stored for extended periods. Confirm that all electronic systems, including the regenerative‑braking interface and infotainment displays, are fully functional, and request a comprehensive pre‑purchase inspection by a qualified MOT centre to establish that the car meets the legal standards when its first MOT becomes due in 2028.
