2014 Toyota RAV4 Invincible D-4D 2.2L Heavy oil · OV64 AEU

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clear trend toward improving maintenance standards. The most recent MOT test conducted in September 2025 at 90,439 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that previous mechanical concerns have been addressed. This follows a clean result from October 2024, suggesting that the current owner is proactive in maintaining the vehicle compared to earlier periods identified in the service history. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between October 2024 and September 2025, where the car covered 13,816 miles in just eleven months. Prior to this period, the accumulation was more gradual, such as the 1,114-mile gap between April 2021 and 2022. This recent spike in mileage may lead to accelerated wear on consumable components more quickly than the historical average suggests. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and suspension, as these areas showed recurring issues. The record flagged thin front brake pads in 2018, lipped front brake discs and worn tyre edges in 2021, and thin rear pads with uneven tyre wear in 2023. While the latest tests passed, the history of these faults suggests a need to check for alignment issues or caliper sticking. Inspecting the current state of the suspension bushes and tyres is vital to ensure the uneven wear noted in 2021 and 2023 has not returned under the higher annual mileage.
