2013 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · FN13 LMO

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 March 2026 at 43,104 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results since March 2023. The owner has kept the vehicle to a sound standard with no advisories or mechanical faults raised across the available history. Recorded mileage sits low for a 2013 registration. The car covered just 4,676 miles between the March 2024 test at 35,701 miles and the March 2026 test at 43,104 miles, averaging around 2,338 miles per year. The DVSA data shows a single failed test on 13 March 2025 at 38,428 miles, reversed the next day with a pass at identical mileage and no defects logged. This suggests an administrative or minor pre-check issue rather than a mechanical defect, and the sparse five-entry record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or structural decline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and likely periods of standing. Low annual use can allow corrosion to develop on underbody structures and brake calipers even when MOT tests show clean. The absence of advisories means no specific component has been flagged, but 13 years of service warrants checking exhaust emissions and structural integrity at the point of sale. Given the fault-free record and gentle mileage, this Yaris shows signs of careful, light use by a conservative owner. Verify service history and confirm the 2025 failure cause was procedural, then proceed with standard pre-purchase checks on tyres and fluid condition.
