2011 Toyota Yaris 1.4L Diesel · LS61 CFX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, but the history indicates a period of instability regarding compliance. While the most recent test on 22 March 2024 at 220,274 miles passed with no defects, this followed two consecutive failures in a very short window. The failure on 21 March 2024 occurred just 13 miles after the previous test, and the prior failure in October 2023 suggests a period where the owner was reacting to faults rather than performing maintenance to keep the vehicle on the road. The mileage profile reflects high usage for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 14,700 miles per annum. Between December 2021 at 196,246 miles and October 2022 at 213,578 miles, the car covered over 17,000 miles in under eleven months. This rate of accumulation accelerated into 2024, with nearly 7,000 miles logged between the October 2023 March tests. Such high-frequency mileage puts significant stress on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system, which accelerates the wear of consumables compared to lower-use examples. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and suspension geometry, as the high mileage often leads to perished rubber bushes and weakened coil springs. Although the record does not list specific mechanical reasons for the 2023 and 2024 failures, the proximity of these tests suggests that components were right on the borderline of failure. Inspect the brake discs for thinning and calipers for binding, and check the exhaust for structural corrosion, as the 220,000-mile mark is a critical point for fatigue in a vehicle of this age.
