2009 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · CU59 OPE

The 2009 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 December 2024 at 59,903 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results since late 2021. Recorded mileage sits at 59,903 against 17 years of age, an average of roughly 3,524 miles per year. The car covered only 1,727 miles between the November 2022 test at 58,037 miles and the December 2024 test at 59,903 miles. Such low annual use suggests extended standing periods. The DVSA log shows no advisories across any pass, and the lone failure on 30 November 2021 at 56,411 miles listed no defects, with the vehicle passing the next day on 1 December 2021 at identical mileage. The record is sparse but clean. A buyer should still inspect for corrosion on structural members and suspension mounting points, as the Yaris of this era is prone to underbody rust where moisture traps form. Standing time accelerates perished rubber components including suspension bushes and droplink gaiters. Check brake discs for face corrosion and calipers for binding after the long idle spells. Verify tyre sidewalls for cracking from age rather than wear, given the low mileage. The MOT history implies a lightly used, basic-maintained vehicle with no recorded mechanical neglect.
