2016 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · A704 PAT

The 2016 Toyota Auris presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 September 2025 at 36,976 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of annual passes since at least 2021. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year DVSA history, indicating the vehicle has not required rectification work to meet minimum statutory standards. The odometer shows 36,976 miles against a ten-year age, averaging roughly 3,700 miles per year. Annual increments stayed consistent: 17,977 miles in September 2021, 23,071 in September 2022, 27,403 in September 2023, 32,031 in September 2024, and 36,976 in September 2025. The record reveals no gaps and no sudden accumulation, but the low yearly use suggests long stationary periods are plausible. Such standing time can allow corrosion to develop on brake discs, suspension bushes, and underbody structures even when test results stay clear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills, subframe, and suspension mounting points for structural rust that MOT testers may not flag until penetration occurs. The absence of advisories on coil springs, brake calipers, or exhaust emissions across all entries implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, yet tyres and wiper blades could have aged through time rather than wear. Verify rubber components and fluid condition before purchase. Given the clean sheet and low mileage, the Auris shows no worsening pattern and no recurring defect trend. The documented history supports a well-preserved example, though pre-sale checks on standing-related degradation remain sensible.
