2022 Toyota C-HR 1.8L Hybrid electric · PB71 EFC

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 26 January 2026 at 17,473 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend since the previous test. The lack of failures suggests that the mechanical and structural components are operating within manufacturer parameters without immediate concern. The mileage pattern is notably low for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,368 miles per year. Between the February 2025 test at 9,383 miles and the January 2026 test, the car covered 8,090 miles. This low usage profile typically implies reduced wear on high-friction components like suspension bushes and brake pads, though such low mileage can sometimes lead to flat-spotting tyres if the vehicle sits for extended periods. Since the record shows no recurring mechanical faults or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on areas typical of low-mileage cars. Check the brake discs for surface rust or light pitting, which often occurs when a vehicle is not driven frequently. Examine the rubber components in the suspension assembly for cracking or dry rot, as these materials age despite low mechanical use. Verify the battery health and fluid levels to ensure the low mileage has not resulted in neglected service intervals.
