2006 Toyota Alphard 2.4L Hybrid electric · WD56 PFZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach rather than proactive care. While it passed its latest test on 2 June 2026 at 106,645 miles, it failed just days prior due to a failed offside front anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover, a bulging nearside rear tyre, and thin rear brake pads. The recurring nature of the brake issues across the last three years suggests that the owner only addresses components once they reach a point of failure or advisory status. At 106,645 miles, the vehicle shows exceptionally low mileage for its twenty-year age, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. The mileage progression is consistent, with roughly 6,000 miles covered between June 2024 and June 2025, and another 4,700 miles in the most recent year. This low-mileage profile often leads to age rot in rubber components, which is evidenced by the repeated advisories for cracking and perishing tyres noted in 2024 and 2025. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and rubberwork. The history shows a pattern of deteriorating boots, moving from a track rod end cover in 2024 to an anti-roll bar joint cover in 2026; you should check all ball joints and bushes for tears or play to prevent future failures. Furthermore, the rear brake system has been flagged for thin pads and pitted discs since at least June 2025. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, verify the tyres for sidewall cracking and inspect the chassis for corrosion that often hides during periods of low use.
