Our Verdict
A solid recommendation for a small petrol hatchback, provided the mileage is acceptable for your needs. The recent history shows a clean record in the last two testing cycles.
When inspecting this specific 1.3L Yaris, focus on the service history to ensure the engine has been maintained despite the high mileage. While the recent MOTs show no defects, the previous failures suggest that mechanical or safety components have required attention in the past.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at over 96,000 miles, this car has been driven much more than the statistical average for this model. Check for any signs of the common model failures mentioned in aggregate data, such as anti-roll bar issues or tyre wear, even if not explicitly noted in the most recent pass.
The 1296cc petrol engine is generally economical for urban driving. You should expect moderate fuel costs consistent with a small-capacity hatchback of this era.
Tax and insurance groups for a 2006 Yaris are typically low, making it an affordable option for newer drivers or those looking to minimise fixed costs. Maintenance costs should be predictable, though you should budget for wear-and-tear items like tyres and suspension components as the vehicle ages.
Given the MOT history, pay close attention to the suspension and steering components. Although the most recent tests passed without defects, the 2023 and 2024 failures indicate that the vehicle has required repairs to meet safety standards in the past.
Referencing aggregate data for this model, you should specifically inspect the anti-roll bars and check for any signs of corrosion on the underside. Additionally, check the tread depth and condition of all tyres, as this is a frequent failure point for the Yaris model across the wider dataset.
This 2006 blue Toyota Yaris features a 1.3L petrol engine and has covered 96,327 miles as of its latest MOT in October 2025. While the vehicle has experienced two failures in its recent history (2023 and 2024), the most recent two tests have passed with no defects recorded. The mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 5,646 miles per year, reflecting a vehicle that has been used regularly.
The Toyota Yaris shows a robust aggregate MOT pass rate of 80% across over 470,000 analysed vehicles.
