2014 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · FN14 URW

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 8 September 2025 at 12,844 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior passing tests in 2023 and 2024 also showed clean sheets. The only blemish is a failed entry on 11 September 2024 at 7,923 miles that was immediately retested and passed the same day with no defects logged, indicating an administrative or transient fault rather than a mechanical defect. The mileage pattern confirms exceptionally light use for a 2014 vehicle. From 15 August 2022 at 7,566 miles to 25 August 2023 at 7,764 miles the car covered just 198 miles in a year. It then rose to 7,923 miles by 11 September 2024 and jumped to 12,844 miles by 8 September 2025, adding 4,921 miles in the final year. The 2024 same-day fail and pass at identical mileage suggests the owner addressed a minor issue or the tester corrected an error without delay. Low annual mileage across twelve years means consumable wear on tyres, brake discs, and suspension bushes will be minimal, but long standing periods raise the risk of perished rubber, seized calipers, and underside corrosion. The clean MOT history gives no advisories for structural integrity or exhaust emissions, yet a buyer should still inspect the subframe, sills, and brake lines for rust caused by inactivity. A pre-purchase check should confirm the brake calipers are free and the tyres have no sidewall cracking from age rather than wear. The recorded history shows no recurring faults, so the Yaris reflects careful, infrequent use with no warning signs in the official record.
