2020 Toyota Yaris Design HEV CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric · DL70 ODV

The vehicle's current status is roadworthy, but the MOT history indicates a concerning trend of mechanical wear rather than a stable maintenance pattern. The most recent test on 2025-12-01 at 54,412 miles was a pass, yet the history reveals a distinct deterioration in the braking and suspension systems which has not improved since. The mileage trajectory reflects rapid accumulation and frequent re-testing, suggesting that the owner has likely maintained the car under insufficient load or conditions. The vehicle has been tested repeatedly, with the most recent inspection occurring in late 2025 at 54,412 miles, while the previous tests occurred in late 2024 and 2023, indicating a significant gap in the inspection schedule that may have occurred due to the owner's inactivity. A buyer must inspect the car for binding rear brakes, pitted or scored brake discs, and structural issues in the suspension bushings and coil springs. The history shows that the brake discs were pitted or scored but not weakened, which could indicate that the wear is primarily on the surface rather than the material. The brake discs were also pitted or scored but not weakened, which is consistent with the history. However, the rear brake disc was worn close to the legal limit/worn on edge, while the front brake discs were worn, pitted or scored, but not weakened. This suggests that the owner may have been using the brakes excessively or that the wear is occurring due to normal wear on the pads themselves. The vehicle's suspension components, including the front and rear suspension bushings and coil springs, have been inspected, but the history does not provide specific details on the condition of these parts. The tester flagged binding rear brakes, but there is no mention of the front suspension bushings or coil springs in the MOT record. This lack of data suggests that the owner may have been unable to perform a full suspension check or that the wear is not uniform across the chassis. The lack of specific data on the front suspension bushings and coil springs means that the owner may have been unable to perform a full suspension check or that the wear is not uniform across the chassis.
