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

This 2008 Toyota has 20 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 33,430 miles. The vehicle's age and recurring issues make it a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 8,652 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.

Things to check

  • Dangerous brake failure recorded on 2014-11-11, indicating a serious safety concern.
  • Recurring suspension advisories and failures, including a major failure on 2023-11-14, suggest ongoing structural wear.
  • Recurring bodywork corrosion advisories across 5 tests, including a major failure on 2023-11-14, point to significant underlying rust.
  • The vehicle is 18 years old, which, combined with the recurring issues, presents a high risk of hidden mechanical and safety problems.

Working in its favour
