About the Toyota Dyna

The Toyota Dyna was MOT tested 1,727 times in 2024 (DVSA data, retests included) across 13 model years (2002 to 2014), with an average pass rate of 73%. That's 9 points below the average of 82% across all models in our data, so check the year-by-year data carefully before buying. Our records list diesel versions.

Best and Worst Years

Of the years with at least 100 tests, the 2007 model has the highest pass rate at 78% from 228 tests. The 2005 model has the lowest at 64%. The 14 point gap means pass rates vary somewhat between years, but no year is dramatically different. Newer cars usually pass more often simply because they are younger.

Reliability Trend

Newer Toyota Dynas pass their MOT more often than older ones, by 5 percentage points on average, which is mostly down to age and wear.

Mileage Across Years

The oldest model in our data (2002) averages 132,110 miles, while the newest (2014) averages 83,211 miles. Older models have covered serious mileage, so suspension and drivetrain wear are worth checking.

Compared to the Toyota brand average of 84%, the Dyna is 11 points lower, placing it among the less reliable Toyota models.
