2014 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · OV64 AEL

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 September 2024 at 35,892 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failed test with no defects listed, a DVSA administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in September 2023 at 23,776 miles, August 2022 at 8,874 miles, and August 2021 at 3,861 miles all passed cleanly. The vehicle has shown no advisories or recorded wear across its five-year MOT trail. Mileage sits low for a 2014 registration, totalling 35,892 miles or roughly 2,991 per year. The jump from 3,861 miles in August 2021 to 8,874 in August 2022 added only 5,013 miles, then 14,902 miles by September 2023, and a further 12,116 by September 2024. This pattern suggests the car stood largely unused before 2021, then entered regular service. Sparse clean records give no evidence of skipped consumable replacement or deferred structural care. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the long dormant period before 2021, as standing vehicles suffer perished rubber and corroded calipers unseen by MOT passes. Check underneath for structural rust on sills and subframes, and confirm the exhaust emissions remain within limits after the mileage ramp-up. The clean history implies conscientious ownership, but low annual use followed by heavier running warrants hands-on verification of tyre sidewall condition and handbrake efficiency.
