2012 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · FD12 GLJ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and consistent maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 15 November 2025 at 65,307 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a string of clean passes over the previous three years, indicating that the vehicle is currently maintained in excellent condition and does not suffer from the mechanical or structural degradation typically seen in a car of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a fourteen-year-old Auris, averaging approximately 4,665 miles per year. Between October 2023 and November 2025, the car covered 9,701 miles, suggesting a very consistent pattern of light use. This low usage generally results in less wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and suspension bushings. However, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to dry rot in rubber components or brake seizing, though the clean MOT records suggest these issues have not manifested. The only recorded point of failure occurred on 29 October 2022 at 50,150 miles, which was immediately rectified to achieve a pass on the same day. Since that date, no advisories for corrosion, leaking shock absorbers, or tyre wear have been noted. A buyer should still physically inspect the chassis for any signs of surface rust, as low-mileage vehicles that sit for long periods can develop localized oxidation. Checking the age of the tyres for sidewall cracking is also advisable given the low mileage relative to the age of the vehicle.
