2016 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · VF16 ACV

This Toyota Yaris presents an exceptionally stable maintenance profile. The most recent MOT on 10 July 2025 at 42,999 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive years of clean passes, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without any recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,300 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last five years, growing from 23,814 miles in July 2021 to 42,999 miles by July 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps in the testing cycle, which suggests regular, light usage rather than prolonged periods of standing. While the MOT history is flawless, the low annual mileage can lead to specific issues that a tester might miss. A buyer should check for perishing rubber components, such as tyre sidewall cracking or degraded suspension bushes, which occur due to age rather than wear. It is also worth verifying the brake pedal feel to ensure the calipers have not seized from under-use, despite the lack of binding flags in the DVSA records. The absence of any recorded corrosion or structural advisories across five years of testing is a positive indicator of the vehicle's integrity. Given the clean record, a physical inspection should focus on fluid levels and service intervals to ensure the engine oil and coolant have been changed regardless of the low mileage.
