2017 Toyota Auris 1.2L Petrol · FP17 ABZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, as confirmed by the May 2026 MOT at 25,052 miles; the only recorded defect was slight damage and cracking on both rear tyres, a recurring issue that does not compromise safety but indicates impending tyre wear. Across the seven annual tests the car has consistently passed, with no escalation of faults, suggesting a stable maintenance trend apart from the tyre concern. Mileage averages roughly 2,800 miles per year, well below typical usage for a 2017 model. The record shows a smooth progression from 16,346 miles in June 2020 to 25,052 miles in May 2026, with no sudden spikes or gaps that would imply periods of intensive driving or neglect. The low‑kilometre history aligns with the modest wear observed on consumables. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the rear tyres, confirming that the cracking is limited to the tread and not extending to the cords, and assess whether replacement is imminent. Inspection of the front brake discs is advisable, given the slight lipping noted in the 2025 test, to ensure sufficient thickness remains. The under‑tray fitted in May 2025 should be examined for secure mounting and to confirm it does not conceal any corrosion or damage to the chassis or exhaust system. A visual check of suspension bushes, coil springs, and any signs of structural rust will complete a thorough assessment.
