2021 TOYOTA YARIS DESIGN HEV CVT1.5L Hybrid Electric (Clean)

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2025-12-04 at 22,240 miles confirms it remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, as all three MOT tests since March 2024 have passed without issues. No recurring faults or advisories suggest any deteriorating mechanical conditions requiring immediate attention. The absence of defects across multiple tests indicates consistent compliance with safety standards. The mileage progression reveals a notable acceleration in usage. Between March 2024 (8,967 miles) and December 2024 (11,499 miles), the car accumulated 2,532 miles over nine months. However, from December 2024 to December 2025, mileage surged by 10,741 miles in just 12 months. This recent spike contrasts with the earlier low usage, potentially indicating heavier utilisation in the past year. While the annual average of 4,448 miles remains below typical thresholds, the rapid recent accumulation raises questions about component wear that MOT records do not explicitly address. Prospective buyers should verify brake system condition, particularly disc thickness and pad wear, given the recent mileage increase. Tyre tread depth and sidewall integrity merit inspection, as high-mileage periods often accelerate tyre degradation. Suspension components, including bushings and shock absorbers, should be checked for signs of wear or misalignment. Although no structural faults were flagged, a thorough undercarriage examination for corrosion or damage is advisable. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic would provide further assurance, particularly focusing on areas affected by the recent intensive usage period.
