AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2006 Toyota has 20 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 14,808 miles. While many advisories were addressed, the repeated nature of these faults warrants careful inspection.
The vehicle shows exceptionally low annual usage, averaging only 3,525 miles per year, with a notable drop in recent years from 5,232 miles (2021) to 2,379 miles (2025).
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 15 tests (2011, 2012, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring headlamp advisories across 5 tests (2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024) suggest persistent electrical gremlins.
- Recurring suspension advisories across 3 tests (2019, 2021, 2022) point to ongoing chassis or suspension wear.
- The 2006 registration combined with exceptionally low mileage (3,525 mi/yr) raises concerns about long-term neglect or storage.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-07-26, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (3,525 mi/yr) suggests light use, potentially reducing wear on engine.
- No major recurring failures on safety-critical systems like brakes or steering, only advisories.
- The 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating (2025) provides strong reassurance on overall safety features.
