2008 Toyota Yaris 1.4L Diesel · GY08 AZG

This Toyota Yaris presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 28 May 2025 at 172,006 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to July 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has undergone proactive servicing outside of the mandatory testing cycle. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's eighteen year age. Between the July 2022 test at 155,191 miles and the May 2025 test at 172,006 miles, the car covered 16,815 miles over nearly three years. This averages to roughly 5,600 miles per year in the recent period, which is lower than the overall lifetime average of 9,556 miles per year. Such a steady usage pattern suggests the vehicle has avoided long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber components. Despite the lack of recorded failures, the high total mileage of 172,006 miles necessitates a targeted physical inspection. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these components typically degrade regardless of MOT outcomes. Checking for underside corrosion is also essential for a 2008 model, particularly around the sills and chassis rails, as surface rust does not always trigger a failure until it becomes structural. The absence of advisories regarding brake discs or tyre tread over the last four tests suggests a diligent approach to consumable replacement. However, a manual check of the engine mounts and the condition of the exhaust system is recommended to ensure the drivetrain remains secure given the total distance covered.
