2021 Toyota Hilux Active D-4D 4WD S/C 2.4L Diesel · YS21 NHV

The vehicle's roadworthiness remains robust, with the most recent MOT test dated 2026-03-27 at 50,191 miles passing with no recorded defects. This indicates that the vehicle has maintained its operational status for over two years, suggesting a stable maintenance trend rather than a deteriorating one. The failure on 2026-03-26 was isolated to a specific electrical system issue (windscreen washer and nearside stop lamp) and does not represent a systemic failure pattern. Regarding the mileage context, the vehicle is approximately ten thousand miles per year, which aligns with its age of roughly five years. While the mileage is consistent with a standard age, the absence of gaps between tests suggests that the owner has likely maintained the vehicle at a consistent speed or through regular short trips rather than long standing. The data is sparse and clean, indicating that the mechanical components have not suffered from the rapid accumulation of wear or damage that would typically be expected at such a high mileage level. Given the isolated nature of the faults and the lack of recurring structural or consumable wear, the buyer should focus on inspecting the engine, transmission, and suspension systems for corrosion or binding. The brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion and wear, as the history of a trailer socket failure highlights the importance of regular brake inspection. Structural integrity must be verified for the chassis and suspension bushes, and the exhaust system should be examined for emissions. A thorough visual inspection of these components is recommended to ensure the vehicle meets current safety standards and is not in a state of imminent danger.
