2014 Toyota GT86 2.0L Petrol · PA11 ADE

The most recent MOT, conducted on 22 October 2025 at 32,482 miles, resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This continues an unbroken five-test sequence of fault-free results stretching back to October 2021. The maintenance trend is stable and consistent, showing no evidence of developing mechanical faults or neglect between annual inspections. The recorded mileage of 32,482 miles over roughly twelve years equates to about 2,707 miles per year. That is low for a sports coupé of this age, and the annual increments are remarkably uniform, ranging from approximately 2,791 to 4,038 miles between tests. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in usage. This pattern implies routine, light-duty use rather than track work, long-term storage, or heavy commuter mileage, although the low annual figure means the car may have spent periods standing idle. Because every test returned no advisories or failures, the history flags no specific recurring faults to chase. However, a twelve-year-old car with such low mileage warrants a pragmatic in-person inspection. Pay particular attention to the condition of the rubber suspension bushes, anti-roll bar links, and coil springs, as these degrade with age rather than distance. Brake discs and calipers should also be checked for corrosion or binding, especially if the car has stood for extended stretches, and the tyres should be examined for age-related cracking despite their apparent tread depth. A clean MOT record is a strong indicator, but it does not substitute for verifying the physical condition of ageing consumables.
