TOYOTA YARIS2016 · 1.5L HYBRID ELECTRIC

The vehicle presents an exemplary roadworthiness status with a consistently stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent test conducted on 8 April 2025 at 39,775 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. This trend of perfect passes across the last five years indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation during this period. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per annum. Between May 2021 and April 2025, the car covered only 3,899 miles, showing a consistent and modest usage rate of roughly 1,000 miles annually. This low-use profile suggests short-trip driving, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, the lack of high mileage can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components rather than purely mechanical wear. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components often affected by low-mileage or stationary periods. Inspect the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking, as low mileage often masks rot despite sufficient tread depth. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or seized calipers, as infrequent use can lead to oxidation buildup on the braking surfaces. Additionally, examine the suspension bushes and rubber boots for signs of cracking, as the age of the vehicle may cause these materials to perish regardless of the low recorded mileage.
