2013 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · PO13 XGJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on September 5 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, with failures limited to minor electrical and cosmetic items rather than mechanical or structural degradation. While the 2025 test initially failed due to blown position lamps and deteriorated registration plates, these issues were rectified immediately for the retest, indicating the owner is responsive to MOT requirements once they are identified. At 69,307 miles over 13 years, this Yaris has a significantly low mileage profile of approximately 5,300 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage, with 5,000 miles covered between August 2023 and September 2024, and another 5,200 miles covered in the following year. This low annual mileage suggests less strain on the drivetrain and engine compared to average examples, though it also increases the risk of age-related rubber component perish and brake corrosion due to longer periods of stationary operation. A buyer should specifically inspect the physical condition of the registration plates, as the record notes deterioration in both consecutive years. The 2023 failure regarding insufficient washer fluid suggests a lack of attention to basic fluid checks, so a thorough check of the washer pump and hoses for leaks is necessary. Because the record lacks advisories for suspension bushes or brake rust, the physical inspection should focus on checking for surface rust on the chassis and ensuring the brake discs are not heavily pitted, which often affects low-mileage vehicles that sit frequently.
