2015 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · LT65 OMH

The 2015 Toyota Yaris is currently roadworthy, with its most recent MOT test on 2025-08-30 resulting in a pass at 35,264 miles. The maintenance trend shows a generally stable pattern over the past four years, with only minor issues flagged in the last two tests. The corrosion on the rear suspension spring mountings noted in the latest test is within acceptable limits and not considered excessive, indicating that while some surface rust is present, it does not compromise structural integrity. The vehicle has passed every MOT since 2022, suggesting consistent upkeep and no major mechanical failures. The recorded mileage of 35,264 miles over 11 years equates to an average of approximately 3,206 miles per year, which is notably low for a vehicle of this age. This suggests the car has seen limited use, possibly due to infrequent driving or long periods of storage. The MOT history is relatively clean, with only two tests recording defects—both in 2023 and 2021—indicating that the car has not been subjected to heavy or demanding usage. The gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests is just over a year, consistent with standard MOT intervals, and no signs of rapid mileage accumulation are evident. Despite the low mileage, certain components show signs of wear that warrant close inspection. The front brake pads were flagged as thin in 2023, and the front discs were noted as being in poor condition, suggesting the braking system may require attention. While the rear suspension corrosion is not critical, buyers should examine the condition of the rear suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of fatigue or binding. The rear tyres were near the legal limit in 2021, and although no tread issues were reported in recent tests, tyre condition should be verified during a pre-purchase inspection. Additionally, the exhaust system and structural integrity of the rear suspension mounting areas should be checked for any hidden corrosion or damage.
