2010 TOYOTA YARIS1.3L Petrol

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend over its recent history. The most recent MOT test on 4 August 2025 at 55,138 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests that any minor issues were identified and immediately rectified to meet testing standards. The car has maintained a clean advisory record for the past two years without recurring mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,446 miles per year. The data shows a consistent progression from 45,438 miles in August 2023 to 50,670 miles in August 2024, and finally 55,138 miles in August 2025. While low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often leads to degradation of rubber-based components and potential corrosion on brake hardware due to long periods of inactivity or short trips. Despite the clean records in the latest tests, a buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on items associated with low-mileage use. Check the chassis for structural corrosion and suspension bushes, which can perish from age even if the car sits stationary. Examine the brake discs and calipers for signs of pitting or seizing, as infrequent use often prevents surfaces from staying clean. Verify the age of the tyres, as the tread depth may be misleading given the 2010 model year.
