Toyota Verso Icon D 4d (2014)
2014 Toyota Verso Icon D 4d
CarHunch analysed 144 real MOT records for the 2014 Toyota Verso Icon D 4d. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2014 Verso diesel is a reliability concern: only 60% pass first time against the UK average of 80%, meaning four in ten examples arrive at their MOT with at least one defect waiting to be fixed. The good news is that dangerous defects are absent from this sample, so safety isn't the issue—it's maintenance catch-up and wear items.
At 82,000 miles median, these are average-mileage examples for their age, yet they're averaging 0.43 failures per vehicle, suggesting the Verso diesel simply needs more regular attention than most rivals. If you're considering one, budget for pre-purchase inspection by a diesel specialist and expect to inherit some deferred maintenance costs.
What to check before buying a 2014 Toyota Verso Icon D 4d
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.
