2006 Toyota Yaris 1.4L Diesel · SV56 AGZ

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 27 February 2025 at 101,855 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without mechanical failures, although the record shows a tendency for the vehicle to fail its initial presentation before passing shortly after. The mileage is exceptionally low for a twenty year old car, averaging roughly 5,093 miles per year. Between February 2023 and February 2024, the car covered only 449 miles, suggesting a period of very light use or prolonged standing. A more significant increase occurred between March 2024 and February 2025, where the odometer rose by 7,317 miles. This shift indicates the car has returned to more regular service. The lack of recorded advisories over the last three years is unusual for a vehicle of this vintage. While the DVSA record is clean, the low overall mileage and periods of inactivity increase the risk of perished rubber components. A buyer should specifically inspect the condition of the tyre sidewalls for cracking and check for any signs of brake caliper seizure or binding, which often occurs when a car sits idle. Given the age of the chassis, a physical inspection of the underbody for corrosion is essential. The MOT history does not flag structural rust, but the absence of recorded faults does not guarantee the absence of surface oxidation on the suspension mounting points or sills. Checking the fluid levels and the age of the engine oil will confirm if the previous owner maintained the vehicle during its low-use periods.
