2009 Toyota Auris 1.4L Diesel · FN59 LDZ

The 2009 Toyota Auris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 December 2025 at 91,491 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the available history. Mileage sits low for a 17-year-old vehicle at 91,491 recorded miles, averaging roughly 5,382 miles per year. The records show gentle accumulation: 86,851 miles in September 2021, 88,085 by September 2022, 88,956 in November 2023, 90,590 in November 2024, and 91,491 in December 2025. The gap between the 2021 and 2022 tests spans just over a year, while later entries fall within standard 12-month cycles. No rapid accumulation or suspicious jumps appear in the data, and the five-entry history carries no advisories or failures. A clean MOT sheet with no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion does not certify absence of wear. Low annual mileage often means long stationary periods that accelerate rubber perishing and surface rust on structural members. The buyer should physically inspect subframe and sills for structural rust, check suspension bushes for cracking, and confirm brake calipers are free from binding after the car stood lightly used. Given the vehicle's age, in-person checks should prioritise underbody structural integrity and flexible components the MOT may not capture at passing thresholds. Verify tyre sidewall condition and wiper operation, as these consumables degrade with time rather than miles. The record implies a previous owner who kept basic statutory testing current, though it reveals little about intermediate servicing discipline.
