2007 Toyota RAV-4 2.0L Petrol · MM07 AEU

The 2026‑04‑10 MOT at 75,842 miles passed, confirming that the vehicle is presently roadworthy; the only recorded defects were worn, pitted or scored brake discs on each corner, which the tester deemed not seriously weakened. The record shows a stable maintenance pattern, with recurring brake disc wear and intermittent corrosion of rear brake pipes, but no escalation of serious mechanical failures. At an average of roughly 3,992 miles per year over 19 years, the odometer reflects relatively low usage, especially in recent years where the increase from 75,654 miles in April 2024 to 75,842 miles in April 2026 amounts to only 188 miles in two years. The jump from 56,301 miles in 2017 to 69,246 miles in 2020 indicates a period of higher mileage accumulation, but the subsequent intervals have been modest, suggesting the vehicle has been largely stationary or used sparingly. A buyer should inspect the condition of the suspension arm pins and bushes, which have repeatedly been noted as worn but not causing excessive movement, and verify that the anti‑roll bar linkage is securely attached; the rear brake pipes, flagged for excessive corrosion in 2025, require close scrutiny for structural integrity. The persistent brake disc wear, tyre sidewall cracking recorded in 2015, and the cracked offside rear fog light lens also merit a physical assessment. Given the persistent brake disc wear and history of pipe corrosion, the buyer ought to examine the condition of the discs for deep scoring, test the brake pedal feel for binding, and check the rear brake lines for leaks or rust‑through; additionally, the suspension components and tyre sidewalls, which have shown cracking in earlier records, merit a physical assessment to confirm that the vehicle remains safe for continued use.
