Got a specific Toyota Landcruiser V8 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 2008 Toyota Landcruiser V8 D-4D has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 3.4%, which is dramatically below the UK average of 80%—these vehicles are arriving at test in severely compromised condition. The good news is that dangerous defects are virtually absent (0%), so while these engines and transmissions need serious work, they're not posing immediate safety threats.
At an average of 161,707 miles, these Landcruisers are well-used workhorses, yet the minimal failure count (0.01 per vehicle) suggests most issues are chronic wear rather than catastrophic. If you're considering one, assume a full mechanical inspection and budget for suspension, exhaust, and engine gasket work before purchase—the 3.4% pass rate is a clear signal that these survivors need attention.
We have 132 2008 Toyota Landcruiser V8 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
