Questions to ask the seller
- Can you show Transportstyrelsen's "Fordonets skulder" (vehicle debt) service, or otherwise confirm there is no outstanding vehicle tax, congestion charge, or parking-fine debt tied to this vehicle? Unpaid vehicle debt transfers to the new owner in Sweden, not the previous one, and can lead to Kronofogden seizing the car.
- Can you run the Toyota VIN check and provide documentation that all recall campaigns listed for this model/year have been completed for this chassis (JTMR63FV90D021318)?
- Please provide original service invoices/receipts corresponding to the service entries shown in the ad (2023-03-23, 2023-11-17, 2025-06-02, 2026-05-27) and confirm the odometer at each service.
- Do you have any insurance/repair claims or accident records for this vehicle beyond what the registry banner shows?
- Can you supply a full ägarbyte/ownership history explaining the 4 ownership events shown in the registry and why privateOwnerCount is reported as 0 in the breakdown?
- Why is the car currently avställd (deregistered) and for how long has it been off the road?
- What exactly is included in your offered warranty (length, deductible, covered components) and can this be added to a written köpekontrakt?
What to check in person
- Never pay a deposit or the full price before you've seen and test-driven the car in person — be wary of pressure to decide immediately ("today only" pricing), or a seller who avoids meeting or an independent inspection.
- Pay by bank transfer or Swish, never cash to someone you haven't met or verified, and complete the registered ownership transfer (ägarbyte) digitally at handover rather than leaving it for later.
- Verify VIN against Toyota's official recall lookup and get a printout showing completed campaigns (or outstanding items).
- Match odometer reading to service receipts and the last inspection record (inspection entry 2025-10-21 at 91,660 km).
- Test-drive: evaluate hybrid system engagement, charging behavior, unusual noises and regenerative braking function.
- Inspect tires for remaining tread and uneven wear; check brake pads and rotors for remaining thickness and scoring.
- Check bodywork and panel gaps for signs of repair or repainting and compare photos with any prior records.
- Request the dealer's 100+ point test report and confirm what was checked; get the pre-sale inspection in writing before purchase.
- Confirm registration/avställning status will be handled at sale and that ägarbyte paperwork will be provided.
