2013 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric · ML13 AXZ

The vehicle presents in a roadworthy state, having passed its most recent inspection in March 2026 with 98,143 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears improving as the mechanical and consumable issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the 2025 test flagged several braking and tyre concerns, the clean sheet indicates that the owner has responded to necessary advisories to maintain safety standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, with a gap of 7,459 miles recorded between November 2024 and November 2025, and another 2,324 miles in the four months since the latest test. This regular interval suggests the car does not suffer from long periods of stagnation, which often benefits the rubber components and seals within the drivetrain and braking system. A buyer should perform a close physical inspection of the braking system, as the November 2025 test noted a binding nearside rear service brake and worn front discs. Although these were reportedly rectified, a tester should check for uneven pad wear or persistent seized calipers that might indicate an incomplete repair. The previous failure in 2024 regarding tyre tread depth and the edge wear on the offside rear tyre suggest a history of neglecting basic consumables. Therefore, verifying the current alignment and condition of all tyres is essential to ensure no underlying suspension issues are causing premature wear.
