Our Verdict
A solid recommendation for those seeking a high-mileage hybrid. The recent MOT history shows a consistent passing record without defects in the last three tests.
Given the mileage of 115,318, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure the hybrid battery and engine components have been maintained according to Toyota's schedule. High-mileage hybrids benefit immensely from regular oil changes and cooling system checks.
When negotiating, consider the high annual mileage compared to the fleet average. Ask for evidence of any major component replacements, such as suspension components or brake discs, which may be approaching the end of their typical service life at this stage of the vehicle's life.
As a 1.8L hybrid, this Corolla is designed for fuel efficiency, particularly in urban environments. You can expect competitive fuel economy, though actual figures will depend on driving style and load.
Tax and insurance groups for this model are generally moderate, making it a sensible choice for commuters. Maintenance costs should be typical for a Toyota, though at over 115,000 miles, you should budget for wear-and-tear items like tyres and brake pads. Estimated annual running costs are approximately £1,200-£1,500, including fuel, tax, and routine maintenance.
Check the headlamps and lighting systems thoroughly, as 'headlamp' issues are noted as a top failure reason for this model in aggregate data. Although this specific vehicle had no defects in its 2024 MOT, it is a common point of failure for the Corolla range.
Additionally, inspect the brake pipes and engine management system. While the MOT history for NJ69FOA shows no recent failures in these areas, they are statistically significant failure points for this model. Ensure there are no warning lights on the dashboard during a test drive.
This 2019 Toyota Corolla hybrid has covered 115,318 miles since its first registration in September 2019. While the mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 6,796 miles per year, the vehicle has passed its three most recent MOT tests without recorded defects. The black 1.8L hybrid powertrain remains a popular choice for efficiency, though the high usage should be factored into your valuation.
The Toyota Corolla shows an average MOT pass rate of 79.4% across the 101,460 vehicles analysed, with common failures relating to headlamps and brake pipes.
