2015 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · DP15 WHZ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in June 2025 at 36,403 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reveals a persistent issue with braking components. While the offside front wheel bearing failure in June 2024 was successfully rectified to allow a subsequent pass, the front brake discs have remained a recurring advisory item across the last four years of testing. At 11 years old, the vehicle averages approximately 3,300 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for a Toyota Yaris. Between June 2022 and June 2025, the car covered only 7,593 miles, indicating very light use or long periods of inactivity. While low mileage generally suggests less wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the degradation of rubber components and corrosion on braking surfaces due to lack of heat and friction from regular use. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the front braking system, as the tester flagged discs as worn in every annual test since 2022. The presence of a slight lip noted in 2022 suggests the discs are approaching the end of their functional life despite the low mileage. Furthermore, because the offside front wheel bearing failed in 2024, the buyer should check for any hum noise or play in the wheel assembly to ensure the replacement was of high quality and has not suffered premature failure.
