2014 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · FN14 FOP

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 November 2025 at 94,098 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year DVSA history, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening condition or recurring defects under official inspection. Recorded mileage sits at 94,098 miles against a 2014 build, an average of roughly 7,842 miles per year and typical for the age. The test on 31 January 2022 at 62,659 miles and the July 2023 pass at 72,988 miles show modest annual use, then a gap of over thirteen months before the August 2024 test at 80,830 miles. The latest 2025 test added 13,268 miles in fifteen months, a slight rise above prior rates but not abnormal. The clean record across all dates suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current rather than deferring consumable replacement. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, given the car is twelve years old and rubber or hydraulic components degrade with time irrespective of MOT outcomes. The history shows no corrosion, structural, or exhaust emission flags, yet the 21 July 2023 failure at 72,985 miles with no defects listed points to an administrative or metering issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault, with the same-day pass confirming roadworthiness. Given the absence of recorded advisories, focus the viewing on tyre tread depth, wiper condition, and underbody rust not yet at test threshold. The consistent passes imply the Yaris received reasonable care, but MOT clearance alone does not certify component life remaining on a high-mileage 2014 hatchback.
