MOT Millage

Recently when checking the MOT on my car using the Check the MOT history of a vehicle GOV.UK service I discovered that the entire car’s millage history is recorded. This made me quite interested in my Toyota Celica 2002 millage over the years. I first got in 2004 when it was 2, the first MOT was in 2005. However it seems the services history starts at 2007, which if I recall was when MOT became a lot more electronic.

Here is the millage data, I calculated the miles since the last MOT column. The average annual millage is 9525.
