2009 Toyota Auris 1.4L Petrol · LS59 AAJ

The 2009 Toyota Auris presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 4 March 2026 at 30,071 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Every MOT from 2022 through 2026 passed without advisories, showing no worsening or recurring mechanical faults across the five-year record. The odometer reads 30,071 miles against seventeen years of age, equating to roughly 1,769 miles per year. The mileage climbed from 25,281 in July 2022 to 26,207 by August 2023, then 26,709 in March 2024, 28,412 in March 2025, and 30,071 in March 2026. This reflects light, consistent annual use with no gaps or sudden accumulation. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, which suggests careful low-mileage ownership rather than deferred upkeep. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and likely periods of standing. Long idle spells can allow corrosion to develop on structural members and brake calipers even when tests show clean. The absence of advisories means no specific component was flagged, but rubber perishables and underbody rust remain age-related risks unseen in the record. Given the unbroken pass history and low annual mileage, the Auris shows no evidence of neglected consumables or serious mechanical risk. Verify service intervals and check for structural integrity beneath sills and arches before purchase, as MOT cleanliness at this age does not certify freedom from latent corrosion.
