2016 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · FN66 FBV

The Toyota Auris presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 8 August 2023 at 277,802 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior tests in 2021 and 2022 also passed cleanly, indicating no recurring advisories or structural concerns across the visible history. The upkeep pattern suggests consistent basic compliance rather than neglect. The recorded mileage of 277,802 at the 2023 test reflects heavy use for a 2016 model, averaging roughly 27,780 miles per year. The gap between the 6 August 2021 test at 171,822 miles and the 24 August 2022 test at 222,132 miles shows about 50,000 miles covered in one year, a high accumulation rate. A failed test on 16 August 2022 at 222,100 miles preceded the pass eight days later, though the record lists no defects, implying either a clerical rejection or an unresolved minor fault cleared quickly by the owner. Given the sparse and clean MOT history, no specific mechanical faults such as worn suspension bushes, corroded subframes, or binding brakes were flagged for this vehicle. The high mileage demands a physical inspection of consumable items not always caught at test: brake disc thickness, coil spring condition, and exhaust emissions under load. A buyer should verify the odometer against service stamps to confirm the 277,802 figure is genuine. Standing for nearly three years since the last test, the Auris requires a fresh MOT before road use. Previous owners sustained test passes but the absence of advisories at this mileage is unusual, so scrutinise tyre tread depth, wiper function, and underbody structural integrity for hidden corrosion before purchase.
