AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This Toyota Yaris presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistently clean MOT record. The most recent test on 15 July 2025 at 105,743 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, indicating a vehicle that is well-maintained and free from recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,609 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last few years, rising from 89,735 miles in August 2022 to 105,743 miles by July 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or sudden heavy commercial use. The record is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age. A single failure on 5 August 2022 was resolved within six days, and the absence of any advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions over the last four years suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. The previous owners appear to have addressed wear and tear before it reached a critical failure point. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the underbody for corrosion, as surface rust often goes unmentioned in MOT records unless it compromises structural integrity. Checking the condition of the tyres and brake pads is recommended to ensure these consumables have not been neglected since the last test. Given the lack of flagged faults, the focus should remain on general age-related rubber perishables and fluid levels.

Our Verdict

This 2010 Toyota Yaris offers a practical and generally reliable ownership proposition, backed by a recent pass on its July 2026 MOT. However, its history shows a pattern of deferred maintenance regarding oil levels and exhaust components that require careful inspection before purchase.

When inspecting this Yaris, check the recent service receipts to confirm that the exhaust system and lambda sensor issues noted on the July 2026 MOT have been properly rectified rather than temporarily patched. Given that advisories for low engine oil appeared in 2019, 2023, and 2024, listen closely to the 1.33-litre engine for any signs of excessive oil consumption or timing chain rattle. It is also wise to negotiate on the price if the service history lacks recent oil change documentation.

The 1.33-litre petrol engine in this Yaris strikes a sensible balance between daily usability and economical motoring, typically returning solid fuel economy around the mid-50s mpg on a combined cycle. Annual road tax falls into a moderate band for a 2010 petrol hatchback, while insurance sits in a reasonably low group, making it an affordable choice for new drivers or commuters. Factoring in fuel, standard road tax, insurance, and routine maintenance like servicing and tyres, you can expect an estimated annual running cost of around £900-£1,200.

Pay close attention to the exhaust system from the manifold back, as the July 2026 test recorded a major gas leak and a lambda reading failure, following a minor leak advisory in 2024. Inspect the front brakes and tyres carefully, referencing past advisories for perishing rubber and worn discs. Finally, check the engine bay thoroughly for any signs of oil leaks or staining, ensuring the oil level is sitting correctly on the dipstick given the recurring low-oil advisories seen in its MOT record.

First registered in October 2010, this silver Toyota Yaris features a 1329cc petrol engine and has covered 110,499 miles. The vehicle recently overcame a July 2026 test failure involving an exhaust gas leak, a lambda sensor reading issue, and a non-functional washer jet before passing on the same day. Consistent previous advisories regarding low engine oil levels across multiple years suggest that previous owners may not have checked fluid levels regularly.

The Toyota Yaris is widely regarded as a durable and dependable hatchback, though individual vehicle health depends heavily on consistent servicing and fluid checks.
