2014 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · OY14 EZF

This Toyota Yaris maintains a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass rate. The most recent test on March 3, 2026, at 105,387 miles, resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory for a defective front windscreen wiper blade. This indicates the vehicle remains in a usable condition, although the recent history shows a shift from a completely clean record to one with recurring minor consumables issues. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 8,782 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, such as the 6,912-mile increase between February 2025 and March 2026. There are no suspicious mileage drops or sudden spikes that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or undocumented heavy commercial use. A recurring trend of tyre wear is evident in the records. The tester flagged worn front tyres in March 2024 at 92,512 miles and again in February 2023 at 84,940 miles, specifically noting wear on the edges. This pattern, combined with a nail in the offside front tyre in February 2025, suggests a lack of proactive tyre maintenance or potential alignment issues. The February 2023 test also noted thin front brake pads, which indicates a reactive rather than preventative approach to wear-and-tear items. A buyer should specifically check the front suspension and steering geometry to ensure the edge-wear on the tyres is not caused by failing bushings or incorrect tracking. While the March 2022 test at 77,173 miles flagged a deteriorated anti-roll bar linkage dust cover, the absence of further suspension failures suggests this was either resolved or has not progressed to a critical state. Given the vehicle's age and the recent focus on tyres and brakes, a physical inspection of the brake disc thickness and tyre tread depth is recommended.
