2023 Toyota Corolla Icon HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric · MH23 UDT

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 5 August 2025 at 54,684 miles which returned no recorded defects. This indicates a stable maintenance trend following a previous advisory. The lack of failure points in the latest inspection suggests that any mechanical issues identified previously have been addressed or that the vehicle is currently operating within acceptable safety and environmental parameters. The mileage profile is high for a three-year-old vehicle, averaging over 18,000 miles per year. A significant surge in usage occurred between the August 2023 test at 369 miles and the July 2024 test at 29,405 miles, representing nearly 29,000 miles driven in just twelve months. This rapid accumulation suggests the car was used for long-distance motorway commuting, which typically accelerates the wear on consumable components and suspension components compared to average usage patterns. A buyer should specifically inspect the suspension and tyre alignment, as the July 2024 advisory noted a nearside rear inner tyre worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. This pattern often points to geometry issues or worn suspension bushes that require attention. Given the high mileage, a physical check of the brake pads and discs is also necessary to ensure the heavy usage has not led to uneven wear or premature thinning of the braking system.
