2013 Toyota GT86 2.0L Petrol · VL61 VAL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last three years. The most recent test on 3 February 2026 at 75,678 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite an initial failure entry on the same day which suggests an administrative error or a minor, immediately rectified item. This consistency indicates the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. At 75,678 miles over 13 years, the car has averaged approximately 5,800 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for its age. The data shows a steady usage pattern, with 1,960 miles covered between February 2023 and February 2024, and another 1,992 miles recorded between January 2024 and January 2025. This low mileage typically implies less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to rubber-based components degrading or fluid decontaminating. While the MOT history is clean, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of components prone to age-related brittleness. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as low-mileage cars often sit long enough for perish rot. Given the low usage, inspect the brake discs and calipers for corrosion or pitting, which can occur when vehicles are not driven frequently. Additionally, examine the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly in the sills, as the MOT test only identifies rust once it reaches a specific threshold of structural weakness.
