Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When viewing this Sirion, prioritize a thorough inspection of the tyres and suspension. The most recent MOT in June 2026 highlighted multiple issues, including a nail in the nearside front tyre and several tyres worn close to the legal limit. You should negotiate the price downwards to account for the immediate cost of a new set of tyres.
Ask the seller for evidence of recent work regarding the offside front drag link ball joint and the brake binding issue noted in the 2026 test. Because the 2025 MOT recorded worn suspension arm bushes on both the nearside and offside rear, check if these components have actually been replaced or merely monitored.
The 998cc engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing this car in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it economical for city driving. Fuel economy should be relatively high given the small engine displacement.
Maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age typically involve frequent replacement of consumables like tyres, brake pads, and wipers, which have featured prominently in recent MOT records. Expect an estimated annual running cost of approximately £900-£1,100, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Inspect the suspension components very carefully. The MOT history shows a progression of issues: corrosion on the front suspension arm in 2023, and damaged/worn rear suspension arm bushes in 2025. Ensure these have been addressed to avoid further MOT failures.
Check the braking system and steering linkage. The 2026 MOT noted a binding offside front service brake and play in the offside front drag link end ball joint. Additionally, verify that all exterior lighting is functional, as the central rear upper stop lamp has been noted as non-working in both 2025 and 2026.
This 2006 red Daihatsu Sirion with the 998cc petrol engine has covered 84,560 miles as of June 2026. The MOT history shows a pattern of minor defects, including repeated failures regarding non-obligatory stop lamps and various tyre and suspension issues. While it has passed its most recent test, the frequency of advisories suggests a need for closer inspection of wear items.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Daihatsu Sirion to provide a comparative benchmark.
