2015 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · MD64 ACJ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-09-01 at 67,724 miles, resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. However, a prior failure on 2025-08-22 at 67,703 miles also showed no defects, suggesting potential administrative or procedural issues rather than mechanical concerns. The pattern of passing and failing without recorded faults indicates inconsistent enforcement or minimal wear, but the lack of detailed defect reports limits definitive conclusions. The vehicle’s roadworthiness appears stable, though the absence of recent inspections (the last MOT was over 10 months ago) raises questions about its current condition. The mileage of 67,724 miles over 11 years equates to an average of 6,157 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for a 2015 model. The MOT records show a gap between the 2023-07-28 tests (56,363 miles) and the 2024-08-23 test (63,478 miles), reflecting a 7,115-mile increase over 13 months, followed by a slower accumulation of 4,246 miles by 2025-09-01. This suggests intermittent use or periods of inactivity, which could affect components like the battery, brakes, and suspension. The sparse data, with only five tests over 11 years, offers limited insight into long-term wear trends. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these are common issues in older vehicles. The brake system, particularly the rear calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny given the failure in 2025-08-22, even without recorded defects. Corrosion risks, especially in the exhaust system and underbody, should also be checked, as these can deteriorate during periods of inactivity. The absence of structural integrity issues in the MOT records is reassuring, but a thorough pre-purchase inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical soundness.
