Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to the recent h
When inspecting this vehicle, pay close attention to the rear brake pipes. The September 2026 MOT failure specifically noted corrosion covered in grease, which can sometimes be a sign of a temporary 'patch-up' rather than a permanent replacement. Verify with the seller that these were replaced with new sections or full lines rather than simply cleaned.
Check the front tyres for any signs of uneven wear or bulges, as the vehicle failed its recent test due to a structural failure on the nearside front tyre. Additionally, test the tailgate mechanism thoroughly, as an intermittent fault was flagged in the 2025 MOT record, and ensure all lighting, including the side repeaters, is fully functional.
The 1.3-litre petrol engine is generally economical for urban and motorway driving, though real-world fuel economy will depend on driving style. As a 2013 model, it falls into a standard VED tax bracket for its emissions profile. Insurance groups for the Yaris are typically competitive, making it a reasonable choice for many drivers.
Maintenance costs should be budgeted for potential suspension and braking system work, given the history of ball joint wear and pipe corrosion. You should set aside a contingency fund for these items, alongside standard consumables like tyres and wipers, which have also required attention in recent tests.
Focus your inspection on the underside of the vehicle, specifically the rear brake lines. Given the failure for corrosion in 2026, look for any signs of flaking metal or fresh underseal that might be hiding further deterioration. Examine the front suspension area for any play in the joints, referencing the ball joint failure recorded in 2024.
Test the windscreen wipers and all exterior lights, as these were flagged in the most recent MOT failure. A thorough test drive is essential to listen for any knocking sounds from the front suspension, which could indicate that the ball joints or associated components require further attention despite the previous repair.
This 2013 Toyota Yaris has covered 75,045 miles and shows a mixed MOT history. While the car passed its most recent test in September 2026, the record includes a significant failure involving tyre integrity and brake pipe corrosion. Potential buyers should weigh the car's utility against these recurring maintenance requirements.
The Toyota Yaris generally performs well in aggregate MOT data, with a high pass rate compared to the industry average of 79.5%, though suspension and braking components remain common areas for failure as these vehicles age.
