2008 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · CY08 EEJ

The 2008 Toyota Yaris presents a clean and stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 31 October 2025 at 101,730 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from November 2021 to November 2024 likewise recorded passes with no advisories. The maintenance trend is stable, with no worsening faults, recurring advisories, or mechanical defects across the five-year MOT span. The recorded mileage shows light use for an eighteen-year-old vehicle. The odometer rose from 88,883 miles at the 1 November 2021 test to 101,730 miles by 31 October 2025, an accumulation of 12,847 miles over four years, averaging roughly 3,200 miles per year against a lifetime mean near 5,650. The increments are consistent year to year with no gaps or sudden jumps, and the sparse but unbroken clean record suggests careful, low-demand ownership rather than neglected storage. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection of consumable and structural items that MOT passes without advisories do not exempt. At this age and low mileage, suspension bushes, front coil springs, and subframe corrosion warrant close checks, as standing periods can accelerate rust where road salt sits. Brake discs and calipers may show superficial pitting from disuse despite binding-free tests. Given the absence of any flagged defects, the Yaris reflects sound previous upkeep, but pre-purchase scrutiny of underside structural integrity and tyre sidewall condition remains prudent on a vehicle of this vintage.
