TOYOTA AURIS2018 · 1.8L HYBRID ELECTRIC

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance history. The most recent MOT test conducted on 15 May 2025 at 25,283 miles passed with zero defects or advisories recorded. This streak of clean passes across the last five years indicates that the vehicle has remained in good mechanical condition and has not suffered recurring structural or component failures during its inspections. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,160 miles per annum. Between the May 2021 test at 12,478 miles and the May 2025 test at 25,283 miles, the car covered only 12,805 miles over four years. The intervals between tests are regular, with mileage increasing by roughly 2,000 to 4,000 miles in each annual cycle. This low-usage pattern suggests the car was used primarily for short trips or remained stationary for extended periods. While the MOT record shows no mechanical failures, a buyer must account for the risks associated with low-mileage vehicles. Stationary periods can lead to flat-spotted tyres, corrosion on brake discs, and degradation of rubber suspension bushes. A physical inspection should focus on checking for sidew cracking in the tyres and ensuring the brake calipers are not seized despite the lack of heavy use. Given the low mileage, the interval of oil and fluid changes should be verified to ensure they followed a temporal schedule rather than just mileage.
