Toyota Dyna (2010)
2010 Toyota Dyna
CarHunch analysed 222 real MOT records for the 2010 Toyota Dyna. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2010 Toyota Dyna has a first-time pass rate of 73.6%, which trails the UK average of 80% and suggests this model needs more attention before test day. More concerning is that 45.5% of these vehicles have recorded a dangerous defect at some point, well above typical levels—a red flag for prospective buyers.
These Dynas are running at 84,715 miles on average, which is reasonable for a 14-year-old commercial vehicle, but they're accumulating serious wear: the typical unit racks up nearly 4 failures and over 20 advisories per MOT. Before buying, insist on a full service history and independent inspection, and budget for suspension, brake, and emissions work—these are the pattern problems on this generation.
What to check before buying a 2010 Toyota Dyna
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- ⚠️ 45.5% of these vehicles have had a dangerous defect recorded. Enter the reg below — the full MOT history will show exactly what was flagged and whether it was resolved.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
