2016 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · LP65 AEU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean current status. The most recent test on January 10, 2026, at 33,395 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical and safety components currently meet minimum legal standards. While a failure occurred in late December 2024, the immediate re-test success that same day suggests the owner addressed the necessary repairs promptly, preventing a trend of escalating mechanical or neglect. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,340 miles per year. Data shows a consistent but sparse usage pattern, with the car covering roughly 4,000 miles between January 2023 and January 2024, and another 5,900 miles in the following eleven months. This low-frequency use typically implies less internal wear on the drivetrain and engine components. However, long periods of standing between tests can sometimes lead to issues not captured by mileage, such as perished rubber components or seizing of brake calipers due to lack of motion. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage operation. Although the record shows no structural advisories for corrosion, the inspector should check the suspension bushes and tyres for cracking, which occurs with age regardless of distance travelled. The brake discs should be examined for pitting or rust, a common trait in vehicles that sit stationary. Given the single failure recorded in December 2024, verifying the specific nature of that repair would be prudent to ensure no recurring component issue remains.
