2017 Toyota C-HR 1.2L Petrol · WM17 AAU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent MOT pass on 3 June 2026 at 89,008 miles. While the car passed the test, the inspector noted a damaged windscreen and advisory warnings regarding worn front brake discs and thinning front brake pads. This suggests the vehicle is currently entering a phase of required consumable replacement. The maintenance trend shows a recurring pattern of brake wear, which appears to be managed through reactive repairs rather than preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical usage pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,890 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 34,489 miles in June 2020 to the current 89,008 miles in June 2026. There are no significant gaps in usage or evidence of long-term stationary periods. The jump from 55,459 miles in May 2022 to 67,557 miles in May 2023 indicates a regular driving schedule that aligns with the vehicle's age. A prospective buyer should focus heavily on the braking system. The MOT history reveals a pattern of thinning pads and worn or pitted discs across both front and rear axles, including a failure in June 2024 due to low brake fluid and critically thin offside front pads. The June 2024 failure also highlighted low coolant levels and tyre structural issues, suggesting that basic fluid checks and tyre inspections were occasionally overlooked by previous owners. Physical inspection should prioritize the condition of the braking components and the windscreen. Given the repeated advisories for worn discs and thinning pads since 2020, a thorough check of the brake calipers and the remaining pad life is necessary to avoid immediate post-purchase costs. The recurring mention of pitted or scored discs suggests the owner may be running components close to their limit. Checking the tyre sidewalls for bulges or perishing is also advised to ensure the recent structural failures noted in 2024 have been fully rectified.
