2013 Toyota Auris 1.4L Diesel · DY63 VGD

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT results. The most recent test on 27 December 2025 at 41,790 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This streak of perfect passes across the last five annual tests indicates a vehicle that has maintained a stable condition and has not suffered from the mechanical or structural failures common in cars of this age. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old Toyota, averaging approximately 3,215 miles per year. Between December 2021 and December 2022, the car covered only 2,923 miles, suggesting long periods of minimal use. There was a slight increase in usage between November 2024 and December 2025, where the vehicle clocked 7,083 miles. While the low total mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and braking system, it introduces specific risks associated with a vehicle that sits for extended periods. Despite the lack of recorded advisories, a buyer must inspect for signs of age-related degradation and stationary neglect. You should check for perished rubber components, specifically the tyre sidewalls and suspension bushes, which can crack from age rather than mileage. Examine the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting that often occurs when calipers are infrequently used. Additionally, verify the underbody and exhaust system for structural rust, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to moisture retention if they are not driven regularly to dry out the components.
