2010 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · PL10 FEG

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having achieved a clean pass in January 2026 at 81,138 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the history shows immediate failures in late 2024 and late 2025 that were rectified before subsequent passes. These rapid failures followed by successes suggest minor consumable-related issues such as bulbs, wipers, or minor brake adjustments that were addressed immediately upon testing rather than deep-seated mechanical or structural failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The data shows a consistent pattern of low usage, for example, only 4,000 miles recorded between December 2023 and December 2024, and a mere 600 miles between the final two tests in early 2026. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing can lead to the degradation of rubber components, seized brake calipers, and aged fluid which causes internal corrosion. Because the MOT records show no structural rust or advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related degradation common in low-mileage Toyotas. Check the suspension bushes and rubber boots for cracking or perished, as these become brittle over time. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting caused by infrequent use, and verify the condition of the tyres to ensure the rubber has not dried out despite having sufficient tread depth.
