2004 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · FH04 UFR

The DVSA record shows a contradictory outcome for this 2004 Toyota Yaris at the most recent test dated 15 November 2021. On that day the vehicle first failed and then passed at an identical mileage of 129,239, with no defects logged against either result. Such a sequence points to an administrative or data-recording anomaly rather than a clear mechanical trend, and the maintenance picture cannot be judged as stable, worsening, or improving from this sparse evidence alone. The recorded mileage of 129,239 over roughly 22 years equates to about 5,874 miles per year, which is low for a car of this age. The entire history supplied covers only the single date of 15 November 2021, so no accumulation pattern or gap between tests can be assessed. Low annual use of this kind often means prolonged standing periods, which typically accelerate perishable component degradation such as tyres, brake calipers, and suspension bushes even when odometer wear stays minimal. A buyer should physically verify the suspension arms, coil springs, and subframe for corrosion given the vehicle's age and likely static storage. The tester logged no advisories, yet the duplicate failed-then-passed entry on 15 November 2021 warrants a check of the DVSA certificate and any rectification paperwork from that date. Prior to purchase, inspect brake discs and calipers for binding after standing, and confirm exhaust emissions and structural integrity match a clean pass. The absence of recorded defects offers no assurance beyond that single day's snapshot nearly five years before the current date.
