What a used Toyota Hilux costs in Ireland, how it does at the NCT, what goes wrong and what it costs to fix. Based on 89 for sale right now.

Common Toyota Hilux problems
Known weak spots to check before you buy, with typical Irish garage costs if the problem is there.
Timing belt history · €350–€700
Ask when the timing belt and water pump were last done (usually every 160,000 km or 5–6 years). No proof = budget for it.
Automatic gearbox health · €300–€2,500
Make sure the gear changes are smooth when warm, check for a gearbox warning light and ask if the gearbox oil was ever changed.
Engines and how long they last
| Engine | Usually lasts | Motor tax / year | For sale |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.4 Diesel | ~320k km | ~€570 | 16 |
| 2.8 Diesel | ~320k km | ~€750 | 15 |
"Usually lasts" is the mileage these engines commonly reach before major work; service history matters more than the number.

Before you buy a used Toyota Hilux
