2008 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · CP08 AEM

The 2008 Toyota Yaris holds a valid roadworthy confirmation, with the 5 May 2025 test at 67,734 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. The maintenance trend stays stable across the record, showing passes in February 2023 at 60,197 miles, June 2024 at 64,484 miles, and May 2025 with zero advisories. DVSA logged a failure on 27 August 2021 at 55,319 miles yet recorded no defects and issued a pass the same day, pointing to a procedural anomaly rather than mechanical decline. The mileage pattern indicates light use for an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging about 3,763 miles per year against the 67,734 total. The record moves from 55,319 miles in August 2021 to 60,197 by February 2023, then 64,484 in June 2024 and 67,734 in May 2025, revealing a consistent low accumulation with a 17-month gap between the 2021 and 2023 tests. Sparse clean entries suggest the previous owner kept basic statutory testing current but provide no window into consumable wear like tyres or wiper blades. A buyer should still inspect in person the structural and mechanical items that a fault-free MOT list does not expose. At this age, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers demand hands-on checks for wear or binding. The tester flagged no corrosion, yet sills, subframes and exhaust emissions components should be examined for rust induced by prolonged standing. The duplicated 27 August 2021 fail-pass with no defects warrants a DVSA record check to confirm the anomaly holds no hidden fault.
