Our Verdict

Caution is advised; while the Yaris is an inherently robust model, the recent MOT history shows a pattern of mechanical and lighting-related failures that suggest maintenance has been deferred until the test date.

Before purchasing, prioritize a thorough inspection of the braking and exhaust systems. The MOT history repeatedly mentions corroded brake pipes and exhaust leaks, so ensure these have been replaced or repaired rather than just cleaned. Check the rear shock absorbers and suspension, as the vehicle has a history of serious fluid leaks and worn anti-roll bar linkages.

Ask for a full service history to confirm that the 1.0-litre engine has had regular oil changes. Given the age and mileage, check for signs of structural rust underneath, as corroded coil springs have been a recurring advisory in previous tests. Ensure all light bulbs and lenses are functional, as this car has failed multiple times for simple bulb and stop lamp issues.
