2021 Toyota RAV4 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · WP71 GAO

The 2021 Toyota RAV4 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-10-07 at 22,239 miles. Both tests, including the 2024-10-15 inspection at 16,339 miles, confirmed compliance with safety standards. No advisories or failures were noted, indicating consistent maintenance and absence of urgent mechanical concerns. The vehicle’s current status reflects a lack of recurring issues over the past two years. The mileage of 22,239 miles over five years equates to approximately 4,448 miles annually, significantly below average for its age. This suggests either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like the battery, fluids, and rubber seals. The 5,900-mile increase between the 2024 and 2025 tests occurred over 12 months, a rate consistent with light usage but insufficient to confirm dynamic wear on high-mileage parts such as brake discs or suspension bushes. A buyer should inspect for signs of inactivity, including dry rot on tyres, corrosion around wheel arches, and fluid leaks from stagnant systems. While no structural or mechanical faults were flagged, the low mileage may mask wear on consumables like wiper blades or clutch components. Visual checks of the exhaust system and underbody for rust, alongside a brake test to confirm pedal feel and disc condition, would provide clarity on the vehicle’sTrue mechanical state.
