2015 Toyota Land Cruiser 2.8L Diesel · WM65 HFG

The most recent MOT from September 2025 shows a pass, but it highlights front tyre wear that is close to the legal limit and unevenly worn on the edges. This suggests a potential issue with wheel alignment or suspension geometry that has not been addressed. Looking at the history, there is a clear pattern of increasing wear and tear on consumables. While the vehicle was defect-free in 2021 and 2022, the subsequent years show a growing list of issues involving brake pads, scored brake discs, binding brakes, and shock absorber corrosion. The trend is worsening, moving from a clean history to multiple advisories regarding the braking system and tyres within the last two years. The mileage of 103,024 over 11 years averages roughly 9,366 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age and type. This level of usage suggests the wear on components like brakes and suspension is consistent with normal driving rather than extreme heavy use or long periods of sitting idle. The recurring issues with brakes and tyres indicate that while the vehicle is roadworthy, maintenance on wear-and-tear items has been reactive rather than proactive. The recent tyre edge wear is a specific concern that could point to more expensive suspension or steering component issues if left uninvestigated. When inspecting this Land Cruiser, you should first check the wheel alignment and inspect the suspension components for play.
