2007 Toyota Auris 1.4L Diesel · GU07 AEW

The 2026‑03‑04 MOT passed the vehicle despite recording several advisories, confirming that the 2007 Toyota Auris remains roadworthy at 90,537 miles, yet the recurring brake disc wear, tyre perishing and anti‑roll bar dust‑cover deterioration indicate a stable but wear‑prone maintenance trend rather than improvement. The mileage spread over 19 years averages about 4,800 miles annually, a low figure for a car of this age that suggests regular use without long periods of inactivity; mileage increments show steady growth with notable jumps between 2024‑2025 (5,243 miles) and 2025‑2026 (2,838 miles), but no extended gaps that would imply the vehicle has been standing idle. A buyer should inspect the front suspension ball joint dust cover for severe deterioration, examine tyre sidewalls for perishing and inner‑edge wear, and verify the condition of the radiator support panel and rear axle light for corrosion, while also checking brake disc thickness, pad wear below 1.5 mm, parking brake reserve travel, and the integrity of the undertray and exhaust system for any signs of detachment or emission non‑compliance.
