2012 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · DA12 LDV

The 2012 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 May 2025 at 73,062 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. The recorded mileage shows light use for a fourteen-year-old vehicle. From the 24 September 2021 test at 58,610 miles, the car covered only 14,452 miles to May 2025, averaging well under 4,000 miles per year across that span. A gap exists between the January 2023 pass at 67,871 miles and the prior September 2021 entry, but the step from 67,871 to 70,100 miles by May 2024 and then 73,062 by May 2025 confirms steady low accumulation. The DVSA record is sparse, with just four tests shown and no advisories or failures at any stage. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean sheet. Low mileage and long stationary periods risk perished rubber components such as suspension bushes, degraded coolant hoses, and flat-spotted tyres that a pass test would not necessarily flag. The absence of corrosion or brake advisories in the record is reassuring, yet structural integrity around sills and subframes should be checked for hidden rust given the vehicle's age. The previous owner clearly kept the car to a basic but sufficient standard, with no skipped tests or neglected consumables appearing in the data. Verify service history matches the low annual use, and confirm brake discs and calipers are free from binding after standing idle.
