2009 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · FN09 WDZ

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 4 April 2025 at 148,101 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history. The vehicle cleared its final test on the same day it initially failed on 4 April 2025, though the failure entry shows no defects logged, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage progression sits at typical levels for a 2009 vehicle. The record shows 138,200 miles at the March 2023 pass, 143,238 miles at the April 2024 fail, 143,316 miles at the April 2024 pass, and 148,101 miles at the April 2025 tests. That equates to roughly 5,000 miles per year between 2023 and 2025, below the lifetime average of 8,712, suggesting lighter recent use. No rapid accumulation or standing gaps appear in the data. The DVSA entries are clean across all five tests. No advisories flag suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity concerns at any stage. A repeated same-day fail-pass with no defects recorded points to clerical error, not deferred upkeep. The previous owner appears to have kept the car to a basic pass standard without neglected consumables surfacing in the official record. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills, subframe, and suspension mounts given the car is seventeen years old and has covered 148,101 miles. Check for hidden rust, perished rubber components, and brake caliper condition that a no-defect MOT does not capture. Verify the April 2025 failure reason with the test centre to confirm it was administrative before purchase.
