2020 Toyota C-HR 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · SM52 AGM

This Toyota C-HR has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness across three consecutive MOT tests, with no defects or advisories recorded in the most recent examinations conducted on June 18, 2025, June 26, 2024, and June 5, 2023. The absence of recurring issues across these intervals suggests a stable maintenance pattern, though the lack of advisories does not preclude hidden wear—particularly in areas like suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake caliper binding, which often require closer inspection. The vehicle’s most recent MOT was completed just over a year ago, which remains within the acceptable window for a used-car purchase, though buyers should verify whether the test covered all critical components, including underbody corrosion and structural integrity. The recorded mileage progression indicates moderate usage, averaging approximately 6,290 miles annually over the past three years. This aligns with typical patterns for a vehicle of this age, though the gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests—covering 8,673 miles—slightly exceeds the 7,673 miles between the 2024 and 2025 intervals. While this variation is not alarming, it implies either inconsistent driving habits or periods of reduced activity. The overall mileage remains well within expected limits for a six-year-old vehicle, reducing the likelihood of excessive wear on high-mileage components like timing belts or transmission fluids, though fluid levels and condition should still be confirmed. Given the clean MOT history, priority should be given to inspecting suspension components for wear—particularly the rear bushes and coil springs—where failure often goes undetected without a thorough lift inspection. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as these can develop between tests despite passing MOT standards. Underbody corrosion, especially around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust system, is another critical area; the absence of advisories in prior tests does not guarantee its absence. Finally, verify that all fluids—engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, and differential oil—have been changed according to the manufacturer’s schedule, as neglect in this area can lead to catastrophic failure. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic is strongly advised to validate these areas.
