Our Verdict
A strong candidate for buyers seeking a low-mileage petrol hatchback. The recent MOT history is notably clean, showing no defects over the last four recorded tests.
Given the low mileage for a 20-year-old vehicle, you should verify that the service history supports the recorded mileage. Check if there are gaps in maintenance, as vehicles that sit idle for long periods can sometimes face issues with rubber components or fluids.
When negotiating, ask for evidence of recent cambelt or timing chain inspections, as these are critical for this engine type. While the MOT history is clean, always check for any signs of fluid leaks or suspension wear that might not have triggered an MOT failure yet.
The 1398cc petrol engine is generally efficient for urban and suburban driving. Being a 2006 model, tax bands and insurance groups will depend on the specific CO2 emissions and the driver's profile, but this engine size typically falls into a moderate bracket.
Maintenance costs for a Toyota of this era are usually predictable, though you should budget for standard wear-and-tear items like tyres, brakes, and wipers. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, and routine maintenance, is approximately £1,100-£1,400.
Focus your inspection on the areas highlighted by aggregate model data, specifically checking the headlamps for clarity and ensuring the engine management light is not active. While this specific vehicle has no recorded failures, you should still inspect the brake pipes for corrosion, as this is a common failure point for this model.
Additionally, check the condition of the blue paintwork for any signs of fading or clear coat failure, and inspect the tyres for uneven wear which could indicate suspension issues. Given the mileage, check the condition of the battery and all rubber hoses.
This 2006 Toyota Corolla features a 1.4L petrol engine and has covered 87,406 miles as of its last MOT in May 2025. Compared to the model average of 6,795 miles per year, this vehicle has been driven significantly less than the typical example of this age. The MOT record shows four consecutive passes without any recorded defects, which is a positive indicator of its recent compliance history.
The Toyota Corolla shows a 79.4% average MOT pass rate across 101,576 analysed vehicles, with common failures involving headlamps, engine management lights, and brake pipes.
