The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.
This 2012 Land Cruiser V8 diesel is a serious red flag for first-time MOT passes—just 1.5% get through without a fault, compared to the UK average of 80%. With a zero dangerous defect rate, the failures aren't safety-critical, but they're consistent and widespread across this cohort of 354 vehicles.
At 71,757 miles average, these Land Cruisers are running well within reasonable expectations for their age, yet they're still failing MOTs at an extraordinary rate—averaging 0.01 failures per vehicle suggests nearly every car that enters the test has something wrong. If you're considering one, budget for immediate repairs and have a pre-purchase inspection done by a specialist diesel mechanic, because this model simply doesn't pass first time.
We have 354 2012 Toyota Land Cruiser V8 D 4d Auto 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
