2011 Toyota Auris 1.3L Petrol · BN61 MKM

This Toyota Auris demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance trend and remains roadworthy based on its most recent MOT. The vehicle passed its last inspection on 29 October 2025 at 155,068 miles with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passes without advisories dating back to 2022, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 6,900 miles between November 2023 and November 2024, and a further 6,638 miles by October 2025. This steady usage pattern avoids the risks associated with long-term standing, such as perished seals or seized brake calipers, while remaining within typical parameters for a fifteen year old commuter car. The absence of recorded defects or advisories over the last four years is rare for a vehicle of this age and mileage. There are no recurring flags for suspension bushes, coil springs, or exhaust emissions. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on 27 September 2022 at 132,130 miles, though the lack of listed defects for either entry suggests a minor administrative error or a trivial rectification. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT tester may overlook. While the record is clean, the high mileage makes it prudent to check for chassis corrosion and the condition of the drivetrain mounts. Inspecting the service history for evidence of timing chain or belt replacements and fluid changes will confirm if the mechanical care matches the clean MOT record.
