Our Verdict
A highly attractive option for buyers seeking a low-mileage example of this model. The consistent MOT pass record suggests a vehicle that has avoided common mechanical failures during its recent history.
Given the low mileage of 42,448 miles, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure that maintenance intervals have been strictly followed despite the light usage. Low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from a lack of regular oil changes or battery issues due to short journeys, so confirm that the 1.3L petrol engine has been serviced according to Toyota's recommendations.
When negotiating, ask for evidence of any work carried out outside of the MOT testing regime. While the MOT history is clean, checking for recent tyre replacements or brake pad wear is advisable, as these are common maintenance items that may not necessarily trigger an MOT failure if they are just approaching the limit.
The 1329cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, making this Yaris a cost-effective choice for urban driving. You can expect reasonable fuel economy, though actual figures will depend on driving style and load.
Insurance groups for this model are typically moderate, making it accessible for younger drivers. Maintenance costs are generally predictable for a Toyota, though you should budget for routine consumables like tyres and brakes. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, sits in the mid-range for a small petrol hatchback.
While this specific vehicle has had no recorded MOT failures, you should remain mindful of the aggregate data for this model, which identifies corrosion, anti-roll bars, and tyres as common failure points. Inspect the underside of the chassis for any signs of early-stage corrosion and check the condition of the anti-roll bar links.
Additionally, check the tyre tread depth and sidewall condition across all four wheels. Since the vehicle has covered relatively few miles (averaging roughly 3,000 miles per year since 2022), ensure that the tyres are not ageing or cracking due to time rather than wear.
This 2015 Toyota Yaris, finished in red, presents with significantly lower-than-average mileage for its age, having covered just 42,448 miles as of June 2025. The MOT history shows a clean run with no defects recorded over the last four consecutive tests dating back to 2022. This combination of low usage and a defect-free testing record makes it a standout candidate in the used market.
Aggregate data from over 470,000 vehicles shows an 80% average MOT pass rate for this model, with common issues relating to corrosion and suspension components.
