AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2004 Toyota has 24 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 33,493 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2022-04-23, which is highly irregular for a 22-year-old car.

The mileage trajectory shows a significant decrease from 163,687 miles in Feb 2018 to 69,900 miles in Mar 2019, followed by an unusually high jump of 114,535 miles before Mar 2020, indicating a major odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Feb 2018 (163,687 mi) and Mar 2019 (69,900 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • Mileage decreased from 163,687 miles (Feb 2018) to 69,900 miles (Mar 2019) — clear odometer fraud.
  • Unusually high mileage jump of 114,535 miles before Mar 2020 — further evidence of odometer tampering.
  • Dangerous tyre defect recorded on 2009-03-03 test — immediate safety concern.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 9 historical failures
  • No specific green flags identified in the MOT history for this 22-year-old vehicle.
