2016 TOYOTA YARIS1.3L Petrol

The 2016 Toyota Yaris demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-18 at 86,577 miles recording no defects. All prior tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed without issues, despite a single failed test on 2022-10-26 at the same mileage. The absence of recurring mechanical faults or structural concerns suggests consistent maintenance, though the 2022 failure without recorded defects warrants scrutiny. No advisories or critical failures appear in the history, indicating the vehicle has met legal standards throughout its service life. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage, averaging 8,658 miles annually over 10 years. The 2022-2023 period shows a 2,083-mile increase over 12 months, followed by a 4,766-mile rise between 2023-2024 and a 6,938-mile jump by 2025. These figures reflect steady driving patterns without abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity. The 2022-10-26 failure occurred simultaneously with the subsequent 2022-10-27 test, raising questions about potential test errors or unresolved minor issues. However, the clean record post-2023 suggests any prior problems were resolved. A buyer should verify the 2022 failure’s resolution and inspect suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, which often degrade in older Yaris models. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for wear, as well as the exhaust system for corrosion. Structural integrity remains unmentioned in the record, but rust-prone areas like underbody panels warrant visual assessment. The vehicle’s MOT history confirms compliance but does not eliminate the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm mechanical soundness.
