Our Verdict
The 2018 Toyota Yaris YE18AAY is a reliable choice with an unblemished MOT history and low mileage for its age. Strong recommendation for buyers prioritising reliability.
Verify service history to confirm regular maintenance, particularly for the timing belt (a known Yaris weak spot). Negotiate based on the vehicle's low mileage compared to average 2018 Yaris usage. Check for any unrecorded repairs or accident history via the DVLA's vehicle enquiry. Be cautious of potential hidden costs associated with older Toyota models, even with clean MOTs.
The 1.5L petrol engine offers decent fuel economy, likely achieving 40-50mpg on mixed driving. As a 2018 model, it falls in UK tax band L (£140/yr for 2023-24). Insurance groups for Yaris models typically range from 5-8, making premiums moderate. Maintenance costs remain low due to the vehicle's reliability, with expected annual running costs of £800-£1,000 including fuel, tax, and routine servicing.
While MOTs show no defects, inspect the timing belt for wear (replacement recommended at 100,000 miles). Check suspension components for age-related stiffness and brake pads for uneven wear. Verify the engine's oil condition and look for any signs of coolant leaks, which can be an issue in older Yaris models. Review service records for regular oil changes and filter replacements.
This 2018 Toyota Yaris has maintained a clean MOT record across five consecutive annual tests, with mileage increasing steadily from 35,416 to 88,822 miles. The vehicle's white paint and 1.5L petrol engine align with common Yaris configurations. While no model-wide reliability data exists, the clean MOT history suggests good maintenance standards.
While no aggregate data exists for this specific model, Toyota Yaris variants generally rank well for reliability in UK MOT statistics, with fewer major defects compared to competitors.
