2008 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · CY08 KHC

The 2008 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 August 2025 at 107,066 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date shows a failed attempt with no defects listed, indicating a likely administrative or retest anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in 2024, 2023 and 2022 also passed cleanly, so the vehicle shows no worsening condition across the recorded history. Mileage sits at 107,066 against an 18-year lifespan, averaging roughly 5,948 miles per year. The records show 92,919 miles on 20 March 2023, rising to 93,482 by 15 August 2024, then jumping to 107,066 by August 2025. That final year added over 13,500 miles after a near-static period, suggesting the car stood lightly used before a recent busy spell. The sparse, clean MOT trail gives little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs and brake discs given the low annual use and probable long idle periods, which accelerate perished rubbers and surface corrosion. The absence of advisories means no tester flagged exhaust emissions, structural integrity or binding calipers, yet standing vehicles often hide damp-related rust unseen on a lift-free test. Verify the V5C and the August 2025 failure reason with DVSA, since a no-defect fail is irregular. Otherwise, the Yaris reads as a low-stress, lightly worn example needing only standard age-related checks before purchase.
