2007 Toyota Auris 1.6L Petrol · FM07 LPK

The Toyota Auris presents a broadly stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 29 December 2022 at 128,629 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. The maintenance history shows no escalating faults and no outstanding advisories across the supplied entries, indicating the vehicle was presented in a condition acceptable to the DVSA tester at that time. Annual mileage sits at roughly 6,770 per year against the car's 19-year life, a typical figure for a 2007 hatchback. The record jumps from 117,895 miles at the 31 December 2021 tests to 128,629 miles twelve months later, an addition of 10,734 miles that is moderately above the long-term average but not abnormal. The two 31 December 2021 entries at identical mileage show a fail followed by a pass on the same day, with no defects listed on either, suggesting an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Given the clean test outcomes and absence of advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion, the MOT record alone raises no red flags on structural integrity or major mechanical wear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody condition, brake caliper operation, and exhaust emissions, as the sparse history offers limited visibility of consumable degradation between tests. The same-day fail and pass in December 2021 imply the previous owner resolved whatever halted the first attempt promptly, though the lack of defect detail prevents diagnosis. With the latest test now over three years old relative to today's date, a fresh MOT and workshop check remain prudent before purchase.
