Our Verdict
A highly attractive option for low-mileage drivers, provided the hybrid battery health is verified. The extremely low mileage and clean MOT history make this a standout example of the 2018 Yaris hybrid.
The primary focus for this specific vehicle should be the hybrid system. Because the car has been driven so little (averaging roughly 1,378 miles per year), you should check if the hybrid battery has been regularly charged and used to ensure it hasn't sat idle for extended periods. Ask the seller for any evidence of hybrid system health checks.
Beyond the hybrid components, check the tyres. With such low mileage, the tyres may have plenty of tread but could be ageing due to time rather than wear. Inspect for any sidewall cracking. Additionally, ensure the service history includes oil changes, as infrequent driving can sometimes lead to neglected maintenance intervals.
As a 1.5L hybrid, this Yaris is designed for high efficiency, particularly in urban environments. Expect low fuel consumption and a relatively low insurance group, making it an economical choice for city commuting.
Tax and maintenance costs are typically manageable for this model. While the hybrid system is generally robust, ensure you budget for periodic specialist inspections. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, is approximately £850-£1,100 depending on annual mileage.
While this specific vehicle has no recorded MOT defects, you should be aware of common failure points for this model aggregate, such as corrosion, anti-roll bar issues, and tyre wear. Given the extremely low mileage, inspect the braking system for surface rust on discs, which can occur if a car is not driven frequently.
Check the hybrid battery cooling vents to ensure they are clear of dust or debris. Finally, because the mileage is so low, verify that the service intervals have been met according to the manufacturer's time-based schedule, not just the mileage-based one.
This 2018 Toyota Yaris Hybrid in Bronze has covered only 6,893 miles since its first registration in November 2018, which is significantly lower than the model average of 5,646 miles per year. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, with five consecutive passes and zero defects recorded between 2021 and 2025. Given its age and usage patterns, it represents a very low-use specimen.
The Toyota Yaris shows a high level of resilience, with an 80% average MOT pass rate across 470,207 analysed vehicles.
