2011 Toyota IQ 1.0L Petrol · WN61 AED

The 2011 Toyota IQ presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its most recent MOT test on 2025-09-10, which recorded a pass at 69,165 miles with no defects. However, the vehicle’s MOT expired on 2025-09-10, and no subsequent test has been conducted as of 2026-07-22, raising concerns about its current compliance. Previous tests from 2022 to 2024 consistently showed passes with no defects, indicating a history of maintenance adherence. The 2025 test’s failure entry, however, is ambiguous as it coincides with a pass on the same date, suggesting a possible data inconsistency. The vehicle’s mileage of 69,165 miles over 15 years equates to approximately 4,611 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage may indicate periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake calipers, and rubber seals. The MOT records show no gaps in testing, with annual checks from 2022 to 2025, but the lack of recent data post-2025-09-10 leaves uncertainty about its current mechanical state. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask hidden dry rot or binding. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, particularly if the vehicle was stored. The exhaust system and structural integrity, though not flagged in past tests, warrant scrutiny due to the car’s age. A pre-purchase inspection is strongly advised to confirm the absence of undetected issues, given the expired MOT and the 2025 test’s conflicting results.
