2017 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Petrol · LP17 AFA

The Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test, with a clean pass recorded on 6 January 2026 at 75,079 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend across the supplied history is stable, with every annual examination either passing or failing on administrative grounds rather than mechanical fault. The January 2026 failure at identical mileage and the January 2025 failure at 63,244 miles both list no defects, indicating paperwork or presentation issues at the test centre rather than deterioration of the vehicle. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a nine-year-old car, averaging roughly 8,342 miles per year against the 75,079 miles recorded. The odometer moved from 55,490 miles at the January 2024 pass to 63,268 miles by the January 2025 test, then to 75,079 miles by January 2026, reflecting steady annual use of around 8,000 to 12,000 miles with no sudden jumps or prolonged standing. The record is sparse and clean, offering no advisories on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, exhaust emissions, or corrosion across any entry. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and consumable wear despite the absent advisories. The lack of flagged coil springs, binding calipers, or corrosion in the MOT data does not confirm their condition, only that the tester raised nothing at the time. Given the car's age, examine underside rust, suspension arm bushes, and remaining brake disc thickness in person before purchase. The repeated zero-defect failures suggest the previous keeper attended tests promptly and corrected any minor presentation matters quickly, implying reasonable basic upkeep. No recurring mechanical faults emerge from the chronology to warn of worsening trends or skipped maintenance.
