2018 Toyota Yaris 1.0L Petrol · GX68 YHO

The 2018 Toyota Yaris presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 6 January 2026 at 52,093 miles with zero defects recorded. That same day also produced a failed test for a non-functioning offside rear fog lamp, a minor electrical item that was evidently rectified immediately given the subsequent pass. The trajectory from 2022 through 2026 shows a vehicle that has moved from advisory-level brake wear to a fully defect-free record, suggesting attentive upkeep in recent years. The mileage accumulation of roughly 6,512 miles per year sits squarely within typical use for an eight-year-old vehicle. The progression from 33,569 miles in December 2022 to 44,656 miles by December 2023 represents a notable jump of 11,087 miles in a single year, indicating heavier use during that period. Subsequent years show a steadier pace, with 6,188 miles added between December 2023 and December 2024, and just 1,249 miles between December 2024 and January 2026. The MOT record is consistent and well-documented, with no suspicious gaps or anomalies in test frequency. The sole mechanical advisory in the history appeared in December 2022 at 33,569 miles, when both front brake pads were flagged as wearing thin. This is a routine consumable item and the clean results since then suggest the pads and likely the discs were replaced. A buyer should still inspect the front braking components in person, checking pad thickness and disc condition, particularly given the relatively low mileage since 2024 that may indicate shorter urban trips prone to corrosion buildup on brake surfaces. The rear fog lamp failure in January 2026 warrants a quick function check of all exterior lighting, including the nearside rear fog lamp and associated wiring, to rule out a broader electrical issue. Beyond these items, the Yaris has no recurring structural, suspension, or exhaust defects on record, making it a mechanically sound prospect pending a standard in-person inspection of tyre condition, suspension bushes, and underbody corrosion.
