2021 Toyota Corolla Icon Tech HEV CVT 1.8L Hybrid electric · YA70 CKF

The vehicle presents a stable level of roadworthiness based on a history of clean MOT results. The most recent test conducted on 11 June 2025 at 94,390 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, mirroring the outcomes of the previous inspections. This consistency suggests that the previous owners have maintained the mechanical and safety systems to a standard that passes testing without recurring failures. The mileage profile indicates high usage for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 19,000 miles per annum. Between the January 2024 test at 66,414 miles and the January 2025 test at 87,429 miles, the car covered 21,015 miles in a single year. A further 6,961 miles were recorded in the five months leading up to the 2025 test. This pattern suggests consistent long-distance driving, which often results in less wear on clutches and brakes compared to short-trip city commuting. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a physical inspection must focus on components susceptible to high-mileage wear. The buyer should specifically check the suspension for signs of perished rubber bushes or leaking shock absorbers, as the high mileage puts significant stress on these components. Given the usage, inspecting the brake discs for uneven thinning and ensuring the calipers are not binding is essential. Because this is a hybrid model, verifying the service history includes hybrid battery health checks and cooling system maintenance is as critical as the MOT results themselves.
