Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2017 Toyota Voxy?

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.

The 2017 Toyota Voxy is exceptionally reliable, with a first-time MOT pass rate of 95.5%—well above the UK average of 80%—and only 2.5% of vehicles ever showing dangerous defects, which is reassuringly low. The vast majority are hybrid-electric models, and they maintain this outstanding pass rate across the board.

At 56,494 miles median mileage, these cars are averaging 8,000 miles per year, which is typical for their age and suggests they've been reasonably well-maintained by their owners. With just 0.21 failures and 0.8 advisories per vehicle on average, the Voxy demands very little attention; if you're shopping for one, a pre-purchase inspection should be straightforward, but do still check the service history to confirm regular maintenance has been kept up.
