2002 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · CX02 XSH

The 2002 Toyota Yaris presents a stable roadworthiness trend with no recorded defects across its three most recent MOT tests. The latest examination on 24 August 2023 at 85,945 miles returned a clean pass with no advisories, confirming the vehicle held sound mechanical condition at that point roughly 23 months before the current date. Recorded mileage shows light use for a 24 year old car. The tester logged 69,406 miles on 6 December 2021, then 73,697 miles on 23 November 2022, and 85,945 miles on 24 August 2023. That equates to under 4,000 miles per year on average, with the final gap showing about 12,000 miles in nine months after a slower prior period. The DVSA history is sparse, offering only three clean passes and no flagged wear, which limits insight into consumable replacement habits. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural corrosion and suspension bushes given the vehicle's age and the record's silence on such items. Low annual mileage often masks standing moisture damage to sills and subframes that a road test alone will not reveal. Brake discs, coil springs, and exhaust emissions should be physically checked despite the absence of advisories in the official data. The clean MOT run suggests previous owners kept basic statutory compliance but provides no evidence of proactive maintenance beyond the test threshold. Verify service receipts and assess tyre sidewall condition, as the history does not confirm renewal intervals for these consumables.
