2024 Toyota RAV4 2.5L Hybrid electric · MS61 TFC

This vehicle has covered 56,268 miles in just two years, which is significantly higher than the average annual mileage for a passenger car. While this suggests the vehicle has spent most of its life on motorways or long-distance journeys, it also indicates that mechanical components have been subjected to a high volume of operational cycles in a very short timeframe. The MOT history is generally clean, with the vehicle passing its first two inspections without major failures. However, the most recent test on 2026-05-09 resulted in an advisory for the nearside rear tyre, which showed signs of cracking or perishing. While this is a minor issue, it serves as a reminder that high-mileage vehicles consume consumables like tyres and brakes at an accelerated rate. The trend appears stable given the lack of recurring defects or serious failures across the two recorded tests. The transition from a clean record in 2025 to a tyre advisory in 2026 is expected for a vehicle used this heavily. There is no evidence of worsening mechanical health, but the high mileage means the vehicle is approaching the point where major service intervals for fluids, filters, and drivetrain components will be critical. Because the mileage is high for the age, you should inspect the vehicle for signs of heavy use that may not show up on an MOT test. Focus your inspection on the condition of the tyres, as the recent advisory suggests they may be nearing the end of their service life, and check the brake discs and pads for excessive wear.
