2017 Toyota Prius 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · RO17 OKZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 23 June 2025 with 61,576 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable despite a single technical failure during that same test due to a structural failure in the offside rear tyre. The fact that the defect was rectified immediately to secure a clean pass indicates that the previous owner was responsive to safety-critical advisories once they were identified by the tester. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. Between April 2022 at 49,218 miles and July 2024 at 57,240 miles, the car covered 8,022 miles, showing a steady usage profile rather than long periods of neglect or rapid accumulation. This low annual mileage figure is generally positive for a hybrid powertrain, as it suggests less mechanical strain on the high-voltage battery system and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the remaining tyres, as the record shows a recurring history of damage including a cut in July 2024 and a structural tear in 2025. These faults suggest the vehicle may have been driven on poor road surfaces or subjected to sidewall impacts. While the MOT history shows no issues with structural corrosion or brake binding, the physical inspection should focus on checking the age of the rubber components and the condition of the suspension bushes, which can perish over time regardless of low mileage.
