Our Verdict
A sensible choice for a hybrid buyer, pr
When inspecting this vehicle, prioritise the suspension and tyres. The MOT history indicates a pattern of wear on the front anti-roll bar linkages and a previous serious fluid leak from the offside front shock absorber; ensure these have been replaced rather than just patched. Check the service history for evidence of hybrid battery health checks, which is standard for a vehicle of this age and mileage.
Negotiate based on the age of the tyres, as the 2025 record highlighted perishing and cuts on the outer side walls. Given the mileage is above the model average, ensure there is a documented history of oil changes and brake fluid flushes to support the vehicle's long-term viability.
As a hybrid electric vehicle, this Auris typically offers strong fuel economy, particularly in urban environments. It falls into a lower CO2 emission bracket, which generally results in reduced annual road tax compared to pure petrol equivalents of the same era.
Insurance groups for the Auris are usually moderate, making it affordable for most drivers. Maintenance costs are typically stable, although the recorded need for suspension components and tyres suggests that wear-and-tear items will be the primary expense. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, is approximately £1,100-£1,400.
Focus your inspection on the front suspension. Specifically, check the anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers and the lower ball joints, as these were flagged for deterioration and grease expelling in 2023 and 2025. Verify that the offside front shock absorber is dry and functioning correctly following the 2023 failure.
Carefully examine all four tyres for signs of perishing or sidewall cuts, as these were repeated points of concern in the MOT history. Finally, check the headlamps and windscreen wipers, as these are the most common failure points for this model according to aggregate data.
This grey 2014 Toyota Auris Hybrid has covered 118,083 miles. The MOT history shows a failure in 2023 due to a shock absorber leak and tyre issues, followed by advisories in 2025 regarding anti-roll bar linkage dust covers and tyre perishing. However, the most recent test in June 2026 was passed with no defects recorded.
The Auris has a solid reliability reputation, with an average MOT pass rate of 81.3% across over 157,000 analysed vehicles.
