2006 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · FN56 TXU

The 2006 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 31 January 2026 at 114,159 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior four annual tests show the same clean outcome. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the DVLA MOT history, so the vehicle shows no worsening or recurring defect pattern across the examined period. Annual mileage sits low for a twenty year old car. The record shows 95,630 miles at the 23 January 2023 test, rising to 101,790 by 30 January 2024, 107,615 by 31 January 2025, and 114,159 by 31 January 2026. That equates to roughly 5,700 to 6,500 miles added each year, a consistent light-use profile averaging about 5,700 miles annually overall. The sparse, clean record gives little basis to suspect heavy drivetrain or suspension loading, though long standing periods common with low use can hide perished rubber components not caught in a static test. A buyer should still verify in person the condition of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age even though testers flagged nothing. The January 2025 entry shows both a fail and a pass logged on the same day at 107,615 miles with no defects cited, likely an administrative reversal rather than a genuine fault, but the V5 and test station paperwork should confirm this. Tyres, wiper blades, and underbody corrosion should be inspected for age-related degradation. Low mileage combined with a twenty year lifespan means original or aged rubber and exhaust hangers may rot regardless of the clean MOT trail. A physical check of structural integrity at sills and subframes remains sensible before purchase.
