2010 Toyota RAV-4 2.2L Diesel · SY60 XBV

The 2026 test of the 2010 Toyota RAV-4 at 112,919 miles on 2025-11-24 indicates that the vehicle has been maintained for approximately 16 years, placing the MOT at the very end of its expected service life. The maintenance trend is currently stable, with the most recent test passing with no adverse effects on the driver's view. This consistency suggests that previous owners have maintained the vehicle with a reasonable frequency, though the recent failure at 2024-10-10 suggests that a more aggressive or frequent inspection was not performed during the period leading up to that date. The mileage pattern is characterized by a rapid accumulation of 112,919 miles in a relatively short timeframe, which aligns with the vehicle's age of roughly 16 years. While the mileage is high, it is not excessively so, and the vehicle has not accumulated excessive wear on critical components such as the suspension, brakes, or drivetrain. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests, where the MOT failed at 101,778 miles, indicates that the vehicle was likely driven on a less frequent basis during the 2023-2024 period, rather than through continuous daily use. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person for the recurring faults flagged in the MOT record, including structural corrosion on the sub-frames and exhaust components, and the wear on the brake discs and under-tray. The brake discs show pitting and scoring but are not excessively worn, while the sub-frames are corroded but structurally intact. The exhaust system has a major leak of gases, which is a critical safety issue that must be addressed immediately. The under-tray is fitted but obscures components, which may require inspection by a professional to determine if it is necessary for the vehicle's safety and performance.
