2014 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · FM14 XKX

The 2014 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 9 June 2025 at 73,163 miles which recorded no defects. Every annual examination from 15 June 2021 through to the 2025 renewal passed cleanly, showing no advisories or failures across the five-year DVLA-documented span. The vehicle has avoided the recurring suspension, brake, or corrosion issues that typically surface on a twelve-year-old hatchback. Annual mileage has held close to 3,000 miles per year, rising from 60,706 miles at the June 2021 test to 73,163 miles by June 2025. The owner added just 3,372 miles between the June 2024 and June 2025 tests, and 2,920 miles the year prior. Such light use across a consistent twelve-month cadence implies a low-stress urban or occasional-use profile rather than neglected storage, and the clean sheets suggest basic servicing kept pace with the MoT schedule. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished record. Twelve years of age invites sub-frame corrosion and degraded rubber suspension bushes even where the tester logged nothing, as MoT standards tolerate early-stage rust. Check the front coil springs, track-rod ends, and brake disc thickness for latent wear masked by low annual distances. Verify the service history independently. The MoT proves statutory roadworthiness only, not cambelt intervals or fluid changes. Given roughly 6,100 miles per year averaged, the Yaris likely needs confirmation that transmission and coolant maintenance occurred on time rather than by mileage alone.
