2013 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · DE63 FSU

The most recent MOT entry shows a pass at 89,992 miles on 2024‑12‑17, yet a failure was recorded on the same date with no defects noted. The annual pattern alternates between a pass and a fail without any recorded faults, indicating a stable but inconsistent maintenance record. The vehicle is currently roadworthy according to the latest pass, but the concurrent failure on the same day suggests that the MOT outcome should be examined closely before acceptance. Mileage progression reveals 9,622 miles between the December 2022 tests and December 2023, followed by only 5,601 miles in the subsequent year. This slowdown in mileage accumulation aligns with the typical 6,900‑mile‑per‑year average for a 13‑year‑old Yaris. The history provides limited data points, with only two full year‑over‑year comparisons available. A buyer should inspect the braking system for binding calipers or uneven disc wear, examine suspension bushes and coil springs for looseness or cracking, check tyre tread depth and pressure, and assess the exhaust and underbody for corrosion or structural damage. A visual chassis check and a short road test for abnormal noises will help verify the vehicle’s actual condition beyond the clean defect log.
