Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Lc5 D 4d A?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Lc5 D 4d A?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Lc5 D 4d A?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Lc5 D 4d A?

Yes. The MOT history will not show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status. An HPI check covers these areas and should be part of any used car purchase.

No MOT data — worth knowing

Got a specific Toyota Land Cruiser Lc5 D 4d A you're checking out?

The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.

This 2010 Land Cruiser LC5 has a first-time pass rate of just 4.5%, catastrophically below the 80% UK average—meaning nearly 96 out of 100 fail their MOT on the first attempt. The good news is that zero vehicles in this cohort have ever recorded a dangerous defect, so while these cars need serious work, that work isn't usually safety-critical.

At 126,000 miles median, these are genuinely well-used vehicles, yet they average only 0.05 failures per car across their entire MOT history, suggesting the initial test failures are often minor or rectifiable issues rather than systemic rot. Before buying one, budget for immediate pre-purchase inspection by a diesel specialist—the abysmal first-time pass rate indicates these trucks need competent maintenance to pass, not that they're fundamentally broken.

MOT statistics not available

We have 171 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Lc5 D 4d A vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
