2018 Toyota Verso 1.8L Petrol · WM67 ACO

The vehicle currently presents a stable maintenance profile, having achieved a clean pass in its most recent MOT on 23 October 2025 at 68,364 miles. While the vehicle failed that same test due to a non-functioning nearside rear position lamp, the immediate rectification allowed for a successful retest. This indicates that minor electrical and consumable issues are being addressed to maintain compliance. The absence of advisories in the last two years suggests the vehicle has been kept in a good state of repair regarding its primary mechanical components. The mileage accumulation follows a consistent and predictable pattern for an eight-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 68,364 miles, averaging around 8,500 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 20,596 miles in December 2020 to 68,364 miles in October 2025. This regular usage is generally preferable to long periods of inactivity, as it suggests the engine, battery, and seals have been regularly exercised. There are no signs of sudden, excessive mileage spikes that would indicate heavy commercial use. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the braking system and tyre condition during a physical inspection. The October 2022 test flagged both an incorrectly adjusted parking brake lever and a badly out-of-shape nearside rear tyre. Although these issues were resolved, they suggest a previous period of neglected upkeep. I recommend checking the brake pad thickness, disc surface condition, and the operation of the handbrake to ensure no underlying issues with the calipers or cables remain. The 2021 record noted a damaged windscreen, which is a common consumable fault, but the absence of structural or corrosion-related advisories across the entire history is a positive indicator. Given the consistent mileage and the recent clean passes, the vehicle appears to be well-maintained, though a thorough check of the suspension bushes and tyre tread depth is advised to ensure the previous issues with tyre deformation have not caused secondary wear to the suspension components.
