2016 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · LD66 MSX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass during the most recent inspection on 23 June 2026 at 59,709 miles. This follows a period of consistent performance where no defects were recorded across the last three consecutive tests. The overall maintenance trend suggests that the mechanical and structural components are currently well-maintained, following the minor issues identified in previous years. The mileage pattern is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per annum. A significant surge in usage occurred between July 2025 (22,489 miles) and January 2026 (41,536 miles), where the car covered nearly 19,000 miles in just six months. Prior to this, the vehicle sat for longer periods, such as the eighteen-month gap between the November 2019 and January 2021 tests. Such intermittent use can lead to age-related degradation of rubber despite the low odometer reading. A buyer should specifically inspect the four tyres, as the November 2024 test at 20,081 miles flagged a cut on the nearside front tyre and perishing or cracking on the offside front and nearside rear tyres. These faults indicate dry rot rather than wear-wear, which is consistent with the failure in December 2021 due to exposed cords on the nearside front tyre. Given the low annual mileage, a physical check for sidewall cracking and tread depth is essential to ensure the tyres have not become structurally unsound due to age. The absence of advisories for corrosion or suspension issues suggests the chassis remains healthy, but a focused inspection of rubber components is warranted.
