2016 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · GU16 VDP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, showing a consistent maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 27 February 2026 at 61,642 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests that any issues identified during inspection were rectified immediately to meet compliance standards. Since 2024, the car has maintained a clean pass record across consecutive annual tests. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-mileage urban vehicle, averaging approximately 6,164 miles per year. Between March 2024 at 49,552 miles and March 2025 at 54,054 miles, the car covered 4,502 miles, while another 7,588 miles were clocked in the final year leading up to the latest test. This steady accumulation indicates regular use which is generally beneficial for drivetrain and suspension components, though the low annual mileage means the age may affect rubber components and bushes despite the low mechanical wear. While the current record shows no active defects, the recurring failures in March 2024 and February 2026 indicate the vehicle requires proactive attention to minor mechanical items. A buyer should inspect the physical condition of the brake components and suspension bushings for signs of premature wear, as these are common sources of immediate MOT failures. Given the age of the vehicle, a check for structural corrosion on the underbody and exhaust system is also necessary to ensure the low mileage has not masked underlying degradation from environmental factors.
