2013 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · EO63 HLD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history shows a persistent trend of neglect regarding rubber components. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 49,701 miles was a pass, it highlighted recurring issues with perishing and cracking on both rear tyres. This specific defect appeared in the 2024 and 2023 tests as well, indicating that the owner consistently ignored age-related tyre degradation despite the low annual mileage. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old Toyota, averaging approximately 3,800 miles per year. Between October 2021 and September 2025, the car covered only 7,663 miles, suggesting very short urban trips or long stationary periods. This low usage typically results in less mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it frequently correlates with the deterioration of dry-rott rubber parts, as seen in the 2021 failure of the front anti-roll bar linkage boots. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of all tyres, as the history suggests the rear pair is failing due to age rather than tread depth. The 2021 failure for severely deteriorated dust covers on the anti-roll bar linkages indicates that suspension rubber components are prone to cracking from disuse. You should also check for surface corrosion on the brake discs, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from seized calipers or rusted rotors when they are not used frequently to clear away debris.
