2014 Toyota RAV4 2.0L Diesel · WR14 HDU

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a stable and clean maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 9 March 2026 at 119,720 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. Following a single failure in late 2022, the vehicle has maintained a clean record across three consecutive tests, suggesting a proactive approach to addressing mechanical requirements. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation of mileage, with 13,670 miles covered between December 2023 and February 2025, and another 11,878 miles between February 2025 and March 2026. This regularity suggests the vehicle is used consistently rather than left to sit, which often helps prevent the degradation of seals and the premature aging of rubber-based suspension components. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of components prone to wear at the age and 120,000-mile mark. Given the high mileage, focus the inspection on the suspension bushes and shock absorbers for signs of leaking or perished rubber. You should also inspect the brake discs for uneven wear or binding calipers, as the MOT only tests for functional efficiency rather than overall component thickness. Checking the chassis for structural corrosion remains a standard best practice to ensure the integrity of the RAV4 remains sound despite its age.
