2017 Toyota C-HR 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · WN67 RYV

A clean and consistent MOT record defines this 2017 Toyota C-HR, with seven consecutive tests between 2020 and 2026 all resulting in pass outcomes and no recorded failures. The most recent examination on 6 August 2026 was carried out with no defects or advisories noted, continuing the pattern established by the August 2025 pass which was similarly clear. The only items flagged across the seven-year testing span are isolated advisories relating to tyre wear on both rear wheels in August 2024 and brake disc surface condition on both rear discs in September 2022. None of these progressed to test failures, and each appeared as a single, contained observation rather than a recurring pattern across multiple tests. Recorded mileage stands at 96,919 miles across approximately nine years of service, equating to an annual accumulation of roughly 10,769 miles per year. This figure sits broadly in line with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, indicating neither extended periods of standing nor particularly aggressive high-mileage use. There are no conspicuous gaps in the annual testing pattern, with tests recorded in each consecutive year from 2020 through 2026, and the mileage progression between tests reflects steady, consistent accumulation. For a vehicle of this profile, this usage rate places moderate but not excessive demand on consumable items such as brake pads, discs, tyres, and suspension components. The advisories recorded in 2024 relating to both rear tyres being worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear warrant particular attention from a prospective buyer. Edge wear on rear tyres, particularly on a C-HR which carries its mass relatively high, can indicate either alignment irregularities, particularly rear toe settings, or suspension geometry issues that have developed since the advisory was raised. On a test drive, listen for any humming or droning noise that changes with speed, which would suggest uneven wear progressing, and visually inspect both rear tyres for feathering or inconsistent shoulder wear. A careful check of the tracking and a four-wheel alignment measurement would be prudent before relying on a new set of tyres, as the wear pattern observed previously may recur if the underlying geometry is not addressed. The 2022 advisories concerning both rear brake discs being worn, pitted, or scored but not seriously weakened at that time indicate that the discs were already showing surface degradation two test cycles prior to the most recent examination. Given the typical wear progression of brake discs, particularly on a vehicle that has now covered close to 97,000 miles, these components are likely to require closer scrutiny. During a test drive, any judder or vibration felt through the brake pedal or steering wheel under firm braking would suggest the discs have worn beyond serviceable limits or have developed uneven thickness variation. Additionally, listen for any binding or scraping noises from the rear wheels when releasing the brake pedal at low speed, which can indicate sticking rear calipers, a known issue on higher-mileage vehicles. With the next MOT due in August 2027, a prospective buyer should budget for rear brake disc replacement and inspect the rear caliper slide pins and handbrake mechanism for smooth operation before purchase.
