Based on 182 MOT tests from 34 vehicles analysed by VehicleScore. The figures below describe that VehicleScore sample. Recurring issues seen in VehicleScore MOT data are not a claim that every TOYOTA PROACE has the same fault.
TOYOTA PROACE's have a very good reliability rating of 637/999. The score was calculated from the average of every TOYOTA PROACE that has had a registered MOT.
We calculated all of the below figures by getting the score from each vehicle make/model/year/fuel, which are each calculated a score. We then generate the average score, taking into account factors such as mileage and emissions.
Also check BHP & performance, road tax, fuel economy, and CO2 emissions for the TOYOTA PROACE.

Recurring issues seen in VehicleScore MOT data are inspection findings from this sample. They are not a statement that every TOYOTA PROACE has the same fault. The median VehicleScore in this sample is 822 out of 999.
These groups combine equivalent MOT comments, such as the same tyre note on different corners. Counts are comment occurrences in the sample, not a percentage of cars.
VehicleScore MOT data includes 40 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record brake discs that were worn, scored, pitted, or corroded.
What to inspect
Look at the disc faces for deep scoring, a lip at the edge, and corrosion.
Example MOT wording: OFFSIDE REAR BRAKE DISC WORN, PITTED OR SCORED, BUT NOT SERIOUSLY WEAKENED (1.1.14 (A) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 27 advisory comments and 2 failure comments in this group. Seen as both an advisory and a failure reason. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record tyres that were worn, damaged, or close to the legal tread depth when the car was inspected.
What to inspect
Check the tread depth and look for uneven wear, cracking, or damage on all four tyres.
Example MOT wording: NEARSIDE FRONT TYRE WORN CLOSE TO LEGAL LIMIT/WORN ON EDGE (5.2.3 (E))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 21 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record brake pads that were worn or below the inspection limit.
What to inspect
Ask for recent pad replacement and look at the remaining pad thickness.
Example MOT wording: REAR BRAKE PAD(S) WEARING THIN (1.1.13 (A) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 19 advisory comments in this group. Seen mainly as an advisory. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record an oil leak noted by the tester. Shock absorber misting is counted as a damper issue, not as an engine oil leak.
What to inspect
Look under the engine for fresh oil, and check the oil level.
Example MOT wording: OIL LEAK, BUT NOT EXCESSIVE (8.4.1 (A) (I))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 9 failure comments in this group. Seen mainly as a failure reason. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record a lamp or bulb other than a headlamp or indicator.
What to inspect
Switch on the side, brake, fog, and number-plate lamps.
Example MOT wording: REGISTRATION PLATE LAMP INOPERATIVE IN THE CASE OF A SINGLE LAMP OR ALL LAMPS (4.7.1 (B) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 7 failure comments in this group. Seen mainly as a failure reason. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record chips, cracks, or other windscreen damage in the driver’s view.
What to inspect
Look for chips and cracks, especially in the area swept by the wipers.
Example MOT wording: OFFSIDE WINDSCREEN WIPER DOES NOT CLEAR THE WINDSCREEN EFFECTIVELY (3.4 (B) (II))
VehicleScore MOT data includes 4 failure comments in this group. Seen mainly as a failure reason. These are comment occurrences, not a share of all cars.
These MOT comments record exhaust leaks, insecurity, or other exhaust defects found at inspection.
What to inspect
Listen for blowing from the exhaust and look for corrosion or loose mounts.
Example MOT wording: REAR EXHAUST SYSTEM INSECURE (6.1.2 (A))
A model year is only commented on when VehicleScore has at least 5 vehicles from that year.
| Year | Vehicles | MOT tests | Pass rate | Recurring issues seen |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022 | 5 | 9 | 88.9% | Tyre wear, Brake pad wear |
| 2017 | 7 | 60 | 76.7% | Oil leak, Tyre wear |
This is an inspection checklist based on MOT comments in the VehicleScore sample. It does not mean the car you are looking at has these defects.
Brake disc wear. Look at the disc faces for deep scoring, a lip at the edge, and corrosion.
Tyre wear. Check the tread depth and look for uneven wear, cracking, or damage on all four tyres.
Brake pad wear. Ask for recent pad replacement and look at the remaining pad thickness.
Oil leak. Look under the engine for fresh oil, and check the oil level.
Lamp and bulb faults. Switch on the side, brake, fog, and number-plate lamps.
Windscreen damage. Look for chips and cracks, especially in the area swept by the wipers.
Exhaust. Listen for blowing from the exhaust and look for corrosion or loose mounts.
Common problems tell you what can affect TOYOTA PROACEs generally. VehicleScore can check the history of the actual car you're considering.
VehicleScore analyses MOT histories from vehicles in its own dataset. Sample sizes vary by model, and a small sample is labelled as such. MOT data records roadworthiness and inspection defects. It does not capture every mechanical or electronic problem a car can have, and a comment on one test is not proof that the model has an inherent fault.
