2009 Toyota Yaris 1.0L Petrol · FD09 AAE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent MOT test on 1 July 2025 at 131,324 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just three miles prior on the same day. This specific sequence suggests a minor issue that was rectified immediately before the retest, but the overall trend indicates the vehicle remains maintained to a high mechanical standard over the last three years. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 95,052 miles and July 2025 at 131,324 miles, the car covered 36,272 miles, representing a steady rate of low use that is generally beneficial for the preservation of age-related components such as brake seals and suspension bushings. The lack of long gaps between annual tests suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for, which helps prevent internal corrosion and fluid degradation. Given the record shows no recurring advisories or mechanical failures, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear points for a 2009 Yaris. While the MOT history is clean, a manual check for structural surface corrosion on the rear sills and floor pans is essential as these models are prone to rust. Additionally inspect the rubber suspension bushes and shock absorbers for leaks, as components reaching 130,000 miles often approach the end of their original service life despite a clean MOT record.
