Buying a used Toyota GT86 for London: what the MOT data shows
The Toyota GT86s in this data were first registered between 2012 and 2020. 2013 was the most common year, with 1,576 tests (23% of the total), and half were registered in 2014 or later.
Every GT86 in the data is from a year likely to comply, so age and condition matter more than ULEZ when choosing one. The newest (2020) passed first time 95% of the time at 16,642 miles on average, and the oldest (2012) passed 82% at 68,493 miles.
Whichever year you choose, check the GT86's weak spots. The most common MOT failures were tyres: "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm" (2.1% of tests); visibility: "does not clear the windscreen effectively" (1.9%); lights and electrics: "inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps" (1.0%). The most frequent advisory was "tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm", on 11.4% of tests.
Overall, 86% of GT86s passed first time, well above the 71% average for all cars, and they had covered 51,959 miles on average, fewer than the 73,145-mile average.
