2015 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · KW15 YMC

This Toyota Yaris has maintained a clean MOT history since its most recent test on 2025-05-28, where it passed without any defects recorded at 25,295 miles. The absence of advisories or failures in the past three tests—including the 2024 and 2023 examinations—indicates a stable roadworthiness trend, though the 2022 test did flag minor tyre damage on both front tyres. The vehicle’s compliance with current emissions and structural checks suggests no immediate cause for concern, but the 2022 tyre advisories warrant closer scrutiny of the wheel arches and suspension mounts for signs of corrosion or improper fitment. The recorded mileage of 25,295 miles over approximately 11 years—roughly 2,300 miles annually—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age, particularly given the typical wear patterns of front-wheel-drive models. The gradual accumulation of just 766 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests, followed by a slightly higher 494 miles between 2023 and 2024, suggests prolonged periods of inactivity rather than consistent light use. While this may imply reduced mechanical wear on high-mileage components, it also raises questions about potential fluid degradation (e.g., brake fluid, power steering) or suspension deterioration from static loading over time. A prospective buyer should prioritise an inspection of the front wheel arches and suspension components, given the 2022 tyre advisories, which may indicate past neglect or improper tyre handling. The absence of brake-related failures in recent tests is reassuring, but the low mileage warrants checking for binding calipers, uneven disc wear, or corrosion on the rear braking system—particularly if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. Additionally, the coil springs, suspension bushes, and steering rack should be examined for signs of fatigue or corrosion, as these components are less likely to show wear at such low mileages but can degrade silently over time. Finally, the exhaust system and underbody should be inspected for rust, as prolonged inactivity can accelerate corrosion in critical areas.
