2013 Toyota IQ 1.0L Petrol · T10 KDJ

The vehicle holds a clean and consistent MOT record, with every annual test from March 2022 through March 2026 resulting in a pass and no recorded defects. The most recent test, on 17 March 2026 at 47,387 miles, returned a completely clear result. This represents a stable, arguably improving, maintenance trend, as there are no advisory notices, no recurring component warnings, and no signs of deterioration across four consecutive annual inspections. Nothing in the official record suggests any current mechanical, structural, or safety-related concern. The mileage pattern is low for the vehicle's age, sitting at roughly 3,645 miles per year over 13 years. The annual test readings show a steady accumulation of about 4,500 to 5,000 miles between each inspection, with no unusual gaps or sudden spikes. The car travelled from 28,538 miles in March 2022 to 47,387 miles in March 2026, which is consistent and moderate use. This suggests regular light commuting or secondary-car usage rather than prolonged standing or heavy motorway work, though the low annual figure can also mask periods of infrequent short trips. Because the MOT history is entirely defect-free, there are no specific flagged components carrying forward. However, a used-car buyer should still carry out an independent physical inspection of the consumable and age-related items that routine MOT testing can miss or that fall outside the test scope. Check the condition of the tyres, brake discs and pads for uneven wear, and listen for any binding from the calipers. Examine the suspension bushes, coil springs, and anti-roll bar links for perishing or creaking on rough surfaces, as low-mileage cars can still suffer from dry rot and corrosion. Take a close look at the underside for structural rust, particularly around the floor pans, sills, and subframe mounts, since the car is over a decade old. The clean record is a strong positive signal, but it only proves the vehicle met minimum legal standards at each point of test; it does not guarantee the condition of the car at this exact moment.
