2021 Toyota C-HR 2.0L Hybrid electric · SC21 THZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to upkeep. The most recent test in May 2026 at 105,531 miles followed a failure just days prior due to defective lighting and severely worn front tyres. While the vehicle passed the re-test, the presence of edge-wear on both the nearside and offside front tyres suggests that the owner only addressed consumable issues once they threatened an MOT failure. This C-HR shows high mileage for its five year age, averaging over 21,000 miles per year. The data reveals a significant accumulation of 2,429 miles between May 2024 and May 2025, and another 6,000 miles in the final year leading to the 2026 test. This consistent high-mileage pattern suggests frequent long-distance use, which typically accelerates the wear on suspension components, bushings, and braking systems compared to lower-mileage city-driven vehicles. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and alignment, as the recurring tyre edge wear noted in 2026 often points to tracking issues or worn control arms. Given the high mileage, the condition of the brake discs and pads should be scrutinized for excessive thinning or uneven wear. The 2025 advisory regarding items removed from the driver's view also warrants a close look to ensure no structural damage or interior modifications are currently obscuring visibility.
