Toyota Landcruiser V8 D 4d A (2010)
2010 Toyota Landcruiser V8 D 4d A
CarHunch analysed 174 real MOT records for the 2010 Toyota Landcruiser V8 D 4d A. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2010 Toyota Landcruiser V8 D-4D is in serious trouble on the test bench: just 1.6% pass on first attempt against the UK average of 80%, and nearly every vehicle in this cohort fails its MOT initially. The median Carhunch score of 50 reflects this poor reliability pattern, though the complete absence of dangerous defects (0%) suggests these are fixable issues rather than safety nightmares.
At 145,000 miles median, these vehicles are well-used but still reasonable for a 14-year-old model, yet the near-zero average failures and advisories per vehicle (0.01 and 0.0) points to a testing artefact—these high-mileage examples either pass comfortably or fail decisively, with little middle ground. Before buying one, get a full pre-purchase inspection by a diesel specialist, because the MOT data alone masks what's genuinely wrong; the pattern suggests that age and heavy use are catching up in ways the test is catching, but repair costs could be substantial.
What to check before buying a 2010 Toyota Landcruiser V8 D 4d A
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.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
