2021 Toyota C-HR 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · SA70 HPF

This Toyota C-HR has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects or advisories across three consecutive tests, most recently passing on 26 August 2025 at 59,013 miles. The absence of recurring issues or advisory notes suggests the vehicle has been subjected to consistent, if not rigorous, maintenance during its five-year lifespan. The most recent test, just under a year ago, confirms the car remains roadworthy without any immediate mechanical or structural concerns. However, the lack of advisories does not preclude the need for a thorough independent inspection, particularly given the vehicle’s age and mileage. The recorded mileage of 59,013 miles over five years equates to approximately 11,800 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age and class. There are no unusually large gaps between tests—each MOT was conducted within the standard 12-month window, with the longest interval spanning 11 months between the January 2024 and January 2025 tests. The steady accumulation of mileage indicates regular use rather than prolonged storage, which could have led to additional wear on components such as suspension bushes, coil springs, or drivetrain fluids. Given the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should prioritise a detailed inspection of high-wear items that are not routinely tested under MOT standards. Focus on the suspension system, including the condition of rear coil springs and front/rear suspension bushes, as these are common points of failure in vehicles of this age. The brakes—particularly the rear calipers and discs—should be examined for binding or excessive wear, as the MOT does not test for uneven pad thickness or caliper sticking. Additionally, check for signs of corrosion at the wheel arches, sills, and subframe, as these areas are prone to deterioration in British conditions. The exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or rust through, even though the MOT did not flag any emissions-related faults. Finally, verify the integrity of the battery, fluid levels (brake, power steering, coolant), and tyre tread depth, as these are consumables not always addressed in a basic MOT pass.
