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

This 2009 Toyota has 20 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 17,699 miles. The vehicle's age and low annual usage also present significant wear concerns.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,862 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 1,536 miles between May 2024 and May 2025).

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Jun 2019, Jun 2020, Jun 2021, Jun 2022) and a major failure (Jun 2023) indicate chronic wear.
  • Multiple headlamp failures (Jun 2024, May 2025) and advisories (Jun 2018, Jun 2024) suggest persistent electrical issues.
  • Extremely low annual mileage (3,862 miles/yr) for a 17-year-old vehicle is a major red flag for corrosion and component degradation.
  • The 2013-06-28 failed MOT for headlamp aim, followed by a same-day retest, is a classic 'just passed' seller tactic.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until June 2027, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation is present in the MOT history.
  • The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for this model is a significant positive for safety.
  • The car has consistently passed its retests after initial failures, showing responsive ownership.
