2017 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric · KE66 MBX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on January 12 2026 at 65,893 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable following a significant period of neglect in early 2025. While the most recent test indicates a clean bill, the previous failure in January 2025 suggests that the owner only addresses critical safety issues once they are flagged by a tester. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year. Between January 2024 and January 2025, the car covered 5,800 miles, while it added another 7,000 miles in the year leading up to the January 2026 test. This steady usage suggests moderate driving which generally limits mechanical strain on the drivetrain and suspension components, though it can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the tyres and suspension geometry. The 2023 and 2025 records highlight recurring issues with tyre condition, including sidewall cracking, perishing, and structural failure on the offside rear. The report of uneven wear on the inner and outer edges in 2025 indicates a potential misalignment or worn suspension bushes that may not have been fully rectified. Check for consistent tread patterns across all tyres to ensure the current set is not suffering from the same premature wear.
