2017 Toyota RAV4 2.5L Hybrid electric · WM17 ABF

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 22 October 2025 at 68,556 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, following a clean record in several prior years. This consistent performance suggests that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle effectively and avoided the mechanical or structural failures that typically trigger MOT re-tests. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per annum. Between the October 2021 test at 39,516 miles and the October 2024 test at 62,307 miles, the car covered 22,791 miles, showing steady annual use rather than long periods of stagnation. This regular usage is generally beneficial for drivetrain components and suspension seals, as it prevents the seizing and accelerated corrosion associated with low-mileage vehicles. While the history is largely clean, buyers should remain mindful of past consumable issues. The 2020 test at 32,443 miles flagged both nearside and offside front tyres as worn close to the legal limit, and the 2023 test at 56,294 miles noted a nail in the nearside rear tyre. Although these are routine wear items, a physical inspection should verify the current tread depth and alignment to ensure no uneven wear patterns persist, given the previous edge wear noted. Given the lack of recorded structural advisories or brake issues in recent years, the vehicle appears to be a well-cared-for example of its model.
