Our Verdict
Proceed with caution regarding tyre and
When viewing this Yaris, prioritise checking the condition of the tyres. The MOT history shows a persistent pattern of tyre issues, ranging from cuts in the sidewalls to cracking and perishing in the most recent 2026 test. Ensure all four tyres have ample tread and no signs of age-related perishing.
Secondly, investigate the suspension. There is a documented history of worn suspension arm bushes and corroded Macpherson struts appearing in multiple MOT tests between 2022 and 2024. While the 2025 record notes the vehicle has been undersealed, you should verify if this was a preventative measure or a response to the corrosion noted in previous years. Ask for evidence of any recent suspension component replacements.
As a 1.5L hybrid, this Yaris is designed for efficiency, typically sitting in a lower insurance group and tax band suitable for urban driving. Fuel economy should be high, particularly in stop-start traffic, which is the ideal environment for this electric-petrol powertrain.
Maintenance costs for this model are generally predictable, though you should budget for periodic replacement of suspension components and tyres, given the advisory trends seen in this vehicle's history. The estimated annual running cost is moderate, largely driven by fuel usage and standard servicing.
Specifically inspect the tyres; the 2026 MOT flagged both offside front and both rear tyres for cracking or perishing, suggesting they may be aged despite potentially having tread.
Check the undercarriage and suspension components closely. The MOT history reveals a recurring pattern of Macpherson strut corrosion and worn suspension arm bushes (noted in 2022, 2024, and 2025). While the 2025 record mentions undersealing, you should look for any signs of active corrosion on the coil springs or struts that were flagged in the 2024 test.
This 2015 Toyota Yaris Hybrid shows significantly lower than average mileage for its age, having covered 32,699 miles since June 2015. While the MOT history shows a consistent pattern of advisories related to tyres, suspension bushes, and strut corrosion, the vehicle has passed all tests to date. The recent 2026 MOT indicates that tyre maintenance is a recurring theme for this specific vehicle.
The Toyota Yaris hybrid is generally regarded for its reliability, though aggregate data shows corrosion and tyre issues are common MOT failure reasons for this model type.
