2018 Toyota Alphard 2.4L Petrol · PA06 AEB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on January 6 2025 at 112,242 miles. The maintenance history indicates a consistent pattern of compliance, as the car has achieved consecutive passes following minor setbacks. The failures recorded in December 2023 and January 2025 without listed defects suggest re-presentation issues that were rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure or structural degradation. The mileage profile is notably low for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap of 10,660 miles between September 2022 and December 2023, followed by only 3,656 miles covered between December 2023 and January 2025. This low-frequency usage typically reduces the wear and tear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the long intervals between tests can lead to the aging of rubber-based components such as bushings, seals, and brake lines which may perish over time regardless of distance driven. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and underbody, as low-mileage vehicles of this era often suffer from hidden corrosion if left while stationary. Given the age of the vehicle, inspect the suspension arms and coil springs for signs of fatigue or dry-cracking in the boots. While the MOT record is clean of advisories, a manual check of the brake calipers and fluid is essential to ensure that the system has not seized during the periods of inactivity suggested by the mileage data.
