Our Verdict

An excellent low-mileage example for first-time drivers or as a reliable city commuter. Its exceptionally low mileage relative to its age makes it a rare find if maintained to high standards.

When inspecting this specific Yaris, the priority is the service history. Because the mileage is so low, rubber components like belts and hoses can age over time rather than wear from use. Ensure the car has been serviced regularly despite the low mileage to keep the 998cc engine in peak condition.

Check the condition of the tyres and suspension joints, as the 2006 failure indicated a split CV joint gaiter. While that was rectified years ago, you want to ensure the current components haven't perished or degraded due to the car sitting for long periods or being driven infrequently.
