2008 Daihatsu Sirion 1.0L Petrol · FN08 YVJ

The 2008 Daihatsu Sirion shows a currently roadworthy status following a pass on 22 July 2024 at 74,742 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable, with the most recent test clearing the vehicle cleanly after a failed attempt just under a month earlier. That prior failure on 26 June 2024 at 74,918 miles listed no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 74,742 against an 18-year lifespan, averaging roughly 4,152 miles per year and marking this as a low-use vehicle. The history jumps from 57,832 miles at the 20 July 2022 test to 65,216 miles by 12 July 2023, then to 74,918 by June 2024, showing a mild recent accumulation of around 17,000 miles in two years after a quieter earlier period. The DVSA data itself is sparse and clean, with no advisories or worn consumables flagged across any entry. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points, given the car's age and the risk of hidden rust on sills or suspension mounting areas not captured by these tests. The low annual mileage and two same-day fail-pass cycles in July 2023 and June-July 2024 suggest the previous owner relied on minimal routine care rather than proactive servicing. Suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers warrant hands-on checks for binding or fatigue, as standing periods common to low-mileage cars accelerate rubber perishing. Verify the actual reason behind the two defect-free failures, since repeated test centre visits imply either paperwork errors or unresolved presentation faults that a buyer must clarify before purchase.
