2022 Toyota Proace 2.0L Diesel · LS22 UAV

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT test on July 29, 2025. However, the record indicates a trend of reactive maintenance rather than preventative care. While the vehicle passed the test, the presence of advisories regarding severely deteriorated both the nearside and offside front outer drive shaft constant velocity boots suggests that rubber components are being neglected until they reach a critical state. The mileage data reveals an exceptionally high usage pattern, covering 104,775 miles in just under four years. This averages to over 26,000 miles per annum, which is consistent with commercial or long-distance fleet use. Such rapid accumulation places significant stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems. The gap between the 2025 test and the current date suggests the vehicle remains in active service, which accelerates the rate of wear on consumable items and mechanical linkages. A physical inspection must focus on the front drivetrain assembly to ensure the CV boots have been replaced as advised. If the noted deterioration has allowed grease to escape and grit to enter the joints, failure and costly axle replacements are imminent. The buyer should also inspect the windscreen noted in the 2025 record to ensure no chips have propagated into the driver's field of vision. Given the high mileage, a thorough check of the suspension bushes, brake pad thickness, and tyre wear is essential to determine if the vehicle has exceeded its logical service intervals.
