2016 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · MK66 FOF

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance record. The most recent MOT test conducted on 7 March 2025 at 6,096 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This trend of clean results across multiple years suggests the car has remained in a good condition without the common mechanical failures or structural degradation typically seen in vehicles of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old Toyota, averaging approximately 610 miles per year. Between September 2020 and March 2025, the vehicle covered only 2,721 miles, indicating very infrequent use or long periods of storage. There is a notable gap between the September 2021 and January 2024 tests, where the car covered just 1,406 miles over twenty twenty-six months. While low mileage minimizes wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, it often leads to specific issues associated with a vehicle sitting stationary. Given the lack of recorded faults, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by long-term stationary use. The inspector should check the brake discs and calipers for corrosion or pitting, as low mileage often leads to surface rust that can cause binding. Tyres must be examined for sidewall cracking or flat spots, regardless of tread depth, because rubber degrades over time rather than distance driven. Additionally, fluids should be checked for moisture contamination or oil degradation, as the engine has not frequently reached operating temperatures to evaporate out condensation.
