2003 Toyota Yaris 1.0L Petrol · ND03 OVR

The 2003 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 December 2025 at 52,539 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 52,539 against an age of roughly 23 years, equating to about 2,284 miles per year. The DVSA data shows light and consistent use: 46,510 miles in March 2021, 47,037 in March 2022, 47,877 in June 2023, 49,240 in October 2024, and 52,539 in December 2025. No gaps exceed typical annual cycles and no rapid accumulation appears. The sparse, defect-free record implies the previous keeper maintained basic statutory compliance, though low standing mileage can mask perished rubber components not captured in a pass result. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as low-use vehicles often develop stiffness or corrosion in these areas despite clean MOT slips. Examine underside structural integrity and exhaust emissions hardware for rust, particularly around sills and subframes where moisture ingress builds during long idle periods. Verify service history independently. The MOT record confirms legal roadworthiness only; it does not evidence fluid changes, timing chain condition, or intermittent electrical faults common on aged Yaris models.
