Our Verdict
This is a strongly recommended purchase for a budget-conscious buyer seeking a dependable small hybrid. The clean MOT history and modest mileage for its age make RK14AEG a low-risk choice in the used market.
When viewing this vehicle, prioritise confirming the service history, as the MOT records show no advisories but do not confirm routine hybrid system maintenance such as inverter coolant or brake fluid changes. Given the 2026 MOT noted slight cracking on the nearside rear tyre inner sidewall, negotiate on the basis that a replacement tyre may be needed soon and factor this into your offer. As no aggregate model reliability data was available, lean on the individual history here which is favourable, but still request proof of battery health checks given the car is over a decade old.
As a 1497cc hybrid electric, this Yaris benefits from low fuel consumption typical of city driving and should fall into a low VED band for a 2014 petrol-hybrid, though exact tax class should be confirmed with DVLA. Insurance groups for this era of Yaris hybrid are generally low, keeping annual premiums modest for most UK drivers. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and typical maintenance are around £700-£900, with the main variable being hybrid battery longevity which has no recorded fault to date.
The only MOT-recorded issue is from 2026-02-25 where the nearside rear tyre showed slight cracking on the inner sidewall (5.2.3 (d) (ii)); inspect all four tyres closely for sidewall perishing and tread depth, and budget for a rear tyre replacement if not already done. Beyond the tyres, the MOT history from 2022-2025 recorded no defects, so focus inspection on the hybrid drivetrain warning lights, smooth engine-electric transition, and evidence of corrosion on the red bodywork given the car's age. Verify the 12V battery condition and ensure the dashboard shows no hybrid system faults, as these are common on older Toyota hybrids even when MOTs are clean.
The 2014 Toyota Yaris hybrid (RK14AEG) has covered just 53,417 miles since first registration in March 2014, which is below average for a 12-year-old car. Its MOT history shows five consecutive passes from 2022 to 2026 with no failures and only a minor tyre sidewall note in the most recent test. As a red 1.5L hybrid electric, it offers an economical and well-documented ownership profile with no recorded defects across four prior years.
No aggregate MOT reliability data was provided for the Toyota Yaris, so assessment is based solely on this vehicle's individual history which shows no failures.
