2019 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Petrol · LR69 UGM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy based on its most recent MOT test on 2025-09-22, at 50,837 miles, which returned a pass with only minor advisories. The maintenance trend shows a gradual increase in wear-related issues over time, particularly concerning the front brakes and tyres, indicating that routine servicing has been maintained but not always proactively addressed. While no serious defects were found in the latest test, the continued presence of brake disc scoring and thinning pads suggests ongoing friction component degradation, which may require attention before the next MOT. Mileage accumulation is consistent with average annual usage for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,262 miles per year. The gap between the 2024 and 2023 tests—11,655 miles over one year—is slightly above average but not excessive, reflecting typical use. The jump from 18,550 miles in 2022 to 26,482 miles in 2023 (7,932 miles) and then to 38,137 miles in 2024 (11,655 miles) indicates increasing usage, especially in the last two years, which accelerates wear on consumables like tyres and brakes. The absence of any defects in the 2022 test suggests the car was well-maintained initially, but the subsequent rise in advisory notes reflects a shift toward more frequent monitoring needs. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of the front brake system, focusing on the condition of the discs and pads, as both have shown progressive wear. The repeated tyre advisories—particularly edge wear on the front tyres and cracking in the rear tyres—indicate potential alignment or suspension issues, or simply inadequate rotation and replacement schedules. The nearside and offside rear tyres have each shown signs of perishing since 2023, suggesting exposure to environmental stress or age-related deterioration. Additionally, the front windscreen wiper blade failure in 2023 warrants checking the entire wiper mechanism and washer system. No structural or safety-critical faults have been recorded, but the pattern of recurring tyre and brake issues points to a need for close scrutiny of suspension components and wheel alignment during a pre-purchase inspection.
