2018 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · CV68 UTP

The 2018 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 October 2025 at 32,281 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. Annual mileage sits low for an eight-year-old vehicle. The records show 20,776 miles at the 5 October 2022 test, rising to 25,139 by 27 October 2023, 29,641 by 17 October 2024, and 32,281 by October 2025. That equates to roughly 4,000 miles per year. The DVSA log shows a duplicate entry for 5 October 2022 where the car first failed then passed on the same day at identical mileage, but no defects were listed against either result, suggesting an administrative or process anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The clean advisory sheet across every test means the tester never flagged worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, binding calipers, or failing emissions. A buyer should still view the car in person given the low use. Prolonged standing invites seized brake components, flat-spotted tyres, and underseal breakdown that a pass certificate will not reveal. Previous keepers clearly kept up with statutory testing and avoided the neglect that produces recurring advisories. The absence of any recorded faults implies basic upkeep was maintained, though the 2022 duplicate failure/pass warrants a check of the full DVSA footnote. Given the spotless record, a standard pre-purchase inspection of brake discs, exhaust condition, and chassis for standing-water corrosion remains sensible.
