2020 Toyota RAV4 2.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · YF20 GHA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with no recorded defects across its last three MOTs, the most recent being a clean pass on 5 July 2025 at 46,979 miles. This consistent defect-free record over nearly two years—spanning three consecutive annual tests—indicates stable mechanical condition and suggests diligent upkeep by previous owners. There is no evidence of worsening trends in suspension, braking, steering, or emissions systems; all tests returned full passes without advisories, reinforcing confidence in core system integrity. Mileage accumulation has been steady and broadly typical for a six-year-old vehicle: 9,307 miles between June 2024 and July 2025, 8,094 miles between June 2023 and June 2024, and 29,578 miles recorded by June 2023—implying the first two years saw higher annual usage before settling into a more moderate pattern. No gaps exceed twelve months, and all tests occurred within the statutory window, confirming regular compliance. The absence of mileage anomalies or sudden jumps supports consistent, real-world use rather than prolonged storage or intermittent operation. Although the MOT history shows no failures or advisories, a physical inspection should still verify condition beyond what the test captures. Pay close attention to front suspension bushes and coil springs, which commonly fatigue around this age and mileage; check rear brake calipers for binding, as they are prone to seizing on RAV4 models if not exercised regularly; examine the lower rear subframe mounts for corrosion or cracking, particularly near the differential mounting points; and inspect the exhaust hangers and underbody for stone chips or moisture retention that could accelerate rust beneath protective coatings. Tyres, wiper blades, and cabin air filters are consumables not assessed in depth during MOT but will likely need replacement given the vehicle’s age and usage pattern.
