2005 TOYOTA YARIS1.3L PETROL

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 4 June 2026 at 47,107 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that any previous mechanical issues have been addressed or rectified. This follows a period of clean passes in 2023 and 2025, suggesting the car has been maintained to a consistent operational standard. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 21-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,243 miles per year. Between April 2023 and April 2024, the car covered 5,283 miles, while it covered only 2,246 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This low usage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and fluid seals which are not captured by mileage alone. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension, as the record shows a failure on 1 May 2024 at 43,869 miles due to an excessively worn anti-roll bar linkage pin or bush. While this was cleared in the subsequent retest, it is prudent to check the remaining suspension bushes and control arms for signs of play or perished rubber. Given the age of the Toyota Yaris, a thorough check of the chassis for structural integrity and surface or corrosion is also essential, as low mileage does not prevent the natural effects of rust over two decades.
