Our Verdict
Exercise significant caution. While the
The primary concern with this vehicle is the extent of the underbody corrosion. You should verify if any of the corroded components flagged in the 2023 and 2024 MOTs—specifically the brake pipes and fuel lines—have been replaced or treated. If they have only been 'greased' to pass the test, they may require expensive replacement soon.
Negotiate the price based on the likelihood of upcoming suspension and braking system work. Request evidence of recent oil changes to address the 'not excessive' oil leak noted in the January 2024 test. A professional pre-purchase inspection focusing on the chassis is essential for this specific car.
The 1.6L petrol engine is generally economical for its era, though it will be less efficient than modern equivalents. Insurance groups for the Auris are typically low, and road tax will fall into a standard bracket for a 2007 petrol vehicle.
However, maintenance costs for this specific example are likely to be higher than average. The recurring MOT advisories for corrosion on the sub-frame, suspension arms, and brake pipes suggest that structural maintenance will be a recurring expense to keep the vehicle roadworthy.
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the underside. Specifically, look at the brake pipes and fuel pipes, which have been flagged for corrosion in three consecutive years (2022, 2023, 2024). Check the front and rear sub-frames and the integral body structure for the rust mentioned in the 2024 report.
Inspect the tyres carefully; the January 2024 test noted that the front tyres were worn close to the legal limit and the nearside rear was cracking. Additionally, check the headlamps for the lens defects noted in 2023 and the 'product on the lens' mentioned in 2024, as these can affect night visibility.
This silver 2007 Toyota Auris has covered 106,028 miles. While it has passed its most recent MOTs, the records from 2022 through 2024 show a persistent pattern of corrosion affecting the sub-frame, integral body structure, and fuel and brake pipes. The vehicle's history suggests a car that is battling significant rust, despite passing its tests.
The Toyota Auris generally maintains a solid reputation, with an average MOT pass rate of 81.3% across analysed vehicles.
