This 2002 Toyota has 8 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 89,013 miles. The mileage is consistently low, but the vehicle's age and recurring defects present significant risks.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 5,372 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but this is a 24-year-old car.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures and advisories across 8 MOT tests since 2021.
- Major exhaust emissions failure on 2024-04-17, a serious safety concern.
- Consistent low annual mileage (5,372 mi/yr) for a 24-year-old vehicle.
- Engine oil leak advisory on 2022-04-04, a recurring issue.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-04-28, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage suggests careful, light use.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories since the 2026-04-28 retest pass.
