2020 Toyota Yaris Design HEV CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · FV70 AEJ

The vehicle currently holds a clean MOT status following its most recent test on 6 October 2025 at 33,816 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement after a period of neglect regarding consumable items. While the 2024 test resulted in a failure due to several tyre defects and a faulty windscreen washer, the subsequent pass with no recorded advisories suggests these issues were addressed promptly. The mileage pattern indicates very light usage for a vehicle of this age. The car has covered 33,816 miles over approximately six years, averaging roughly 5,636 miles per year. The recorded intervals show consistent annual testing, with the mileage increasing from 22,065 in November 2023 to 29,343 in November 2024, and finally reaching 33,816 in October 2025. This low annual mileage suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary or was used primarily for short urban trips. A buyer should pay close attention to the condition of the tyres and the windscreen washer system during a physical inspection. The 2024 failure highlighted significant issues, specifically a nearside front tyre with exposed cords and a nearside rear tyre showing cracking or perishing. Although the 2025 pass indicates these were replaced, the history of perishing rubber suggests the vehicle may sit idle for long periods, which can lead to sidewall degradation. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for any signs of age-related cracking and check the operation of all exterior fluid sprayers. Given the low mileage and the specific nature of the previous tyre failures, checking the tread depth and even wear across all four tyres is advisable to ensure the recent replacements have been maintained. The absence of any recorded suspension, brake, or structural corrosion issues in the MOT history is a positive indicator for a vehicle with this usage profile.
