2017 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · BK67 VFA

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, though the record reveals a recurring trend regarding braking component degradation. The most recent test in September 2025 at 29,667 miles noted worn rear brake discs, though the vehicle passed without a failure. This follows a pattern seen in 2022 and 2023, suggesting that the owner addresses components as they reach wear limits rather than performing preventative replacements earlier. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,300 miles per annum. Between September 2021 at 11,250 miles and September 2024 at 22,733 miles, the car covered only 11,800 miles. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often invites issues related to rubber components and surface corrosion. The 2023 advisory regarding a perishing offside rear tyre supports the theory of long periods of stationary or limited use. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the rear braking assembly and the associated suspension components. The repeated reports of pitting and scoring on the discs between 13,262 miles and 29,667 miles indicate that the metal surfaces are prone to corrosion, which is common in low-mileage cars. Inspect the sidewalls of all tyres for dry cracking, as the age of the rubber likely exceeds its lifespan regardless of tread depth. Additionally, check the calipers and bushings for signs of seizing, ensuring the infrequent use has not caused the moving parts to bind.
