2015 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric · MV65 ENT

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean MOT result on 14 January 2026 at 68,464 miles. This recent pass indicates that the mechanical issues identified in the previous year have been addressed. The overall maintenance trend appears improving, as the car moved from a failure state in early 2025 to a status with no recorded defects in the most recent annual inspection. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eleven-year-old Toyota. Having recorded 68,464 miles, the car averages an annual usage of approximately 6,200 miles, which aligns with typical expectations for low-to-moderate domestic use. Intervals between the 2023 and 2026 tests show steady increments of roughly 4,000 miles, suggesting regular driving cycles rather than long periods of stationary neglect. This low mileage generally benefits the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to rubber components becoming brittle over time. A buyer should focus specifically on the front suspension geometry during a physical inspection. The failure in January 2025 was due to worn bushes on both the offside and nearside front suspension arms. While these appear to have been rectified to pass the 2026 test, a physical inspection should check for any remaining tearing in the rubber or play in the joints to ensure high-quality parts were used. The headlamp aim failure from 2025 was a minor alignment issue and does not suggest deeper mechanical failure, but verifying the current beam height remains a standard final check.
