2018 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Petrol · MV18 FDL

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test conducted in April 2026 at 44,053 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all legal safety requirements. This follows a period of clean passes over the previous three years, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained effectively without recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,500 miles per year. Data shows a significant increase in usage between August 2022 at 8,415 miles and July 2024 at 27,802 miles, where the car covered nearly 20,000 miles in two years. However, usage has since moderated back down, with only 16,251 miles recorded between the two most recent tests. This low annual mileage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage counterparts. The only recorded issue in the history occurred in August 2023 at 17,138 miles, where the nearside front and rear tyres showed signs of perishing or cracking on the outer edges. This is a common symptom of vehicles that sit for long periods rather than from driven wear. A buyer should inspect the current condition of all tyres for sidewall rot, as the low mileage can sometimes mask rubber aging despite sufficient tread depth. Since there are no recorded advisories for brake corrosion, suspension bushes, or structural rust, the physical inspection should focus on verifying that the brakes have not seized from disuse and that the previously flagged tyres were properly replaced.
