2009 Toyota Auris 1.6L Petrol · DA58 DDF

The 2009 Toyota Auris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 October 2025 at 92,132 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT results. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, no recurring advisories, and no structural or mechanical risks flagged across the available history. Annual mileage sits well below typical averages for a 17-year-old car. From the 2021 test at 79,407 miles through to October 2025 at 92,132 miles, the Auris covered just 12,725 miles in four years, roughly 3,180 miles per year against the lifetime average of 5,420. The record shows no gaps in testing and no sudden accumulation; each October test logs steady, low increments, implying light use or periods of standing rather than neglect through high wear. A clean MOT sheet does not exempt the buyer from physical inspection. Low mileage combined with age means rubber suspension bushes, door seals, and brake hose flexibility may have degraded through time rather than use. The tester raised no corrosion or exhaust advisories, yet a 2009 chassis should still be checked underneath for structural rust at sills and subframes. Verify in person that brake discs and calipers are free from binding after standing, and confirm tyres are not aged-cracked despite adequate tread. The owner clearly kept the car to a test-pass standard, but sparse records leave consumable condition and hidden wear unproven without a hands-on check.
