2012 Toyota Yaris 1.0L Petrol · FN62 KVX

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 9 February 2026 at 55,186 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, showing a clean test history across the last five years aside from an anomalous failure on 2 February 2026 at 55,028 miles that was subsequently cleared within a week with no listed defects. This pattern indicates the vehicle has been kept to a testable standard without recurring mechanical or structural advisories. Annual mileage sits at roughly 3,942 per year against a 14-year lifespan, a low figure for the age. The records show steady accumulation: 37,549 miles in February 2023, 44,060 in February 2024, 48,401 in January 2025, and 55,028 by February 2026. The gap between the January 2025 and February 2026 tests saw about 6,600 miles added, slightly above the annual average but not extreme. The sparse, clean history gives little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred suspension work. The February 2026 failure with no defects logged suggests an administrative or minor presentational issue rather than a hard mechanical fault, though a buyer should confirm the rectification paperwork. Given the low mileage and absence of advisories on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, or corrosion, the previous owner appears to have maintained basic upkeep. No worsening trend or structural risk emerges from the data. In person, the buyer should still verify underneath for chassis corrosion and check the rear coil springs and brake calipers for binding after standing periods. Confirm the tyre tread depths and exhaust emissions match the clean record, and request the February 2026 failure clearance documentation to close the lone anomaly.
