2011 Toyota Yaris 1.4L Diesel · FP60 RYW

Despite the clean MOT record, a 15-year-old Yaris at 102,681 miles warrants a thorough mechanical inspection before purchase. The 1.4-litre D-4D diesel is not fitted here — this is the petrol unit — so there is no risk of diesel particulate filter issues, but the timing chain should be checked for any rattle on cold start, as this is a known wear item on higher-mileage examples. Inspect the underside for corrosion, particularly around the rear wheel arches and suspension components, as the model's aggregate data lists corrosion as the top MOT failure reason.

Service history is critical at this mileage. Ask to see evidence of cambelt replacement (recommended around 90,000 miles or every 7 years on the 1.4 petrol) and regular oil changes. A missing service history combined with high miles should warrant either a price reduction or pre-purchase inspection by a Toyota specialist. Check the air conditioning system, as regas and compressor repairs are common on cars of this age.

This white Toyota Yaris 1.4 petrol has covered 102,681 miles across five MOT tests, all of which have been passed without any advisories or defects recorded. Annual mileage of around 6,000 miles is broadly in line with the national average, though well above the typical figure for the Yaris model overall. The 1364cc petrol engine is the larger of the two petrol options offered in this generation and is known for being robust. With no MOT failures and no recurring advisory patterns, the recorded test history is notably clean.
