About This Data
The 1995 Toyota Grandvia has an MOT pass rate of 60.0% based on 60 tests — slightly below the UK average for UK vehicles. Cars of this vintage present for MOT with an average of 159,944 miles on the odometer. With a 40.0% failure rate, the 1995 Grandvia is rated as "Below Average" for MOT reliability.
If you own or are considering buying a 1995 Toyota Grandvia, budget for potential repairs before each MOT. Before your MOT, pay particular attention to tyres: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating. With an average mileage of 159,944 miles, these vehicles are in the higher-mileage bracket where wear-related failures become more common.
Tyres — 18.3% of failures
Tyres issues account for 18.3% of MOT failures on 1995 Toyota Grandvia models. Tyre failures include tread depth below the legal minimum of 1.6mm, cuts, bulges, exposed cords, and incorrect tyre pressure. Tyres are one of the most common and easiest-to-prevent MOT failures. Typical repair costs: £50–200 per tyre. Pre-MOT check: Check tread depth with a 20p coin — if the outer band is visible, the tyre is too worn. Look for bulges, cuts, or embedded objects. Ensure all tyres match the recommended size and load rating.
Suspension — 16.7% of failures
Suspension issues account for 16.7% of MOT failures on 1995 Toyota Grandvia models. Suspension failures typically involve worn bushes, leaking shock absorbers, broken coil springs, and damaged suspension arms. These affect ride quality, tyre wear, and road holding. Typical repair costs: £200–500. Pre-MOT check: Look for uneven tyre wear, listen for clunking over bumps, and check if the car pulls to one side. A bouncy ride suggests worn shock absorbers. Visually inspect coil springs for cracks.
Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment — 6.7% of failures
Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment issues account for 6.7% of MOT failures on 1995 Toyota Grandvia models. Lighting failures cover all external lights: headlights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, fog lights, and reflectors. A single blown bulb will cause an MOT fail. This is one of the most preventable failure categories. Typical repair costs: £5–50. Pre-MOT check: Walk around the car and check every light — headlights (dipped and main beam), side lights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators, hazard lights, reverse light, rear fog light, and number plate lights. Replace any blown bulbs before the test.
