2009 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · 777 PKJ

The 2009 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 July 2025 at 38,501 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results from 2021 through 2025. Annual mileage remains exceptionally low for a 17-year-old vehicle. The tester logged 26,831 miles in July 2021, rising to 27,934 in July 2022, 31,865 in July 2023, 35,636 in July 2024, and 38,501 in July 2025. That equates to roughly 2,300 miles per year across the record. The absence of any test gaps and the steady, modest annual increments suggest a lightly used car kept on a consistent yearly testing cycle by an owner prioritising basic statutory compliance. No advisories or defects appear in the supplied history, so the record gives no direct signal of worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake components. A clean MOT sheet on a low-mileage car of this age can mask issues that short annual use and prolonged standing promote, notably perished rubber, seized calipers, and underbody corrosion the tester did not flag. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the exhaust system, subframe, and sills for rust, check the brake discs and calipers for binding after the car's long idle periods, and verify tyre sidewall condition given the low annual rotation. The MOT evidence supports a well-kept example, but the paper trail alone does not certify mechanical fitness beyond each test date.
