This 2005 Toyota has 27 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 31,213 miles. The recurring brake and suspension advisories, combined with a DANGEROUS brake failure, indicate significant and ongoing mechanical issues.
The MOT history shows a critical 809,998-mile discrepancy on 17 May 2019, followed by a 77-mile/year anomaly before Feb 2020, rendering the vehicle's true mileage and condition unverifiable.
Things to check
- MOT history shows a 809,998-mile discrepancy on 17 May 2019, indicating potential odometer fraud.
- Mileage trajectory is highly irregular, with a 77-mile/year anomaly before Feb 2020, suggesting unverified usage.
- Recurring brake system failures and advisories (e.g., Feb 2022, Jun 2023) point to chronic and expensive maintenance.
- The DANGEROUS brake failure in Feb 2022, combined with recurring brake advisories, signals a persistent and serious safety concern.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until July 2026, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting the owner has been proactive in addressing issues.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for 2025 provides a high level of safety assurance for a 2005 vehicle.
- The 2982cc diesel engine is known for its durability and longevity when properly maintained.
