2012 Toyota Auris 1.8L Electric · BK12 AAX

The 2012 Toyota Auris presents as roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 13 March 2026 at 63,728 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with no recurring mechanical or structural faults across the available five-year history. The Auris displays low mileage for its fourteen-year life. From the 13 March 2023 test at 35,082 miles, it recorded 43,265 miles on 11 March 2024, then 54,279 miles on 12 March 2025, before the final 63,728 miles on 13 March 2026. Annual accumulation averaged 4,552 miles, signalling light use possibly with long standing periods. The only anomaly is a failed test on 12 March 2025 at 54,274 miles followed by a pass later that day at 54,279 miles, both showing no defects; this suggests a procedural quirk rather than a mechanical defect. The sparse record carries no advisories on tyres, wiper blades, suspension bushes, brake calipers or corrosion. A buyer should still inspect components that MOT entries omit. At this age, low mileage can conceal degraded coil springs, binding calipers, or underside corrosion from moisture ingress during storage. Examine brake discs for surface rust pitting, assess suspension bushes for cracking, and verify structural integrity of sills and subframes. Confirm service history for cambelt, coolant and brake fluid replacement, as test passes alone do not evidence routine maintenance. The clean MOT trend implies previous owners met legal test standards, but offers no guarantee of proactive mechanical care.
