2014 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · RE14 DNO

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, maintaining a consistently clean MOT history over the last five years. The most recent inspection on 2 October 2025 at 57,427 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This streak of passes across multiple tests suggests that the previous owners have maintained a high standard and that the vehicle does not suffer from recurring mechanical or structural issues that typically trigger failures. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. Between the October 2021 test at 54,955 miles and the October 2025 test at 57,427 miles, the car covered only 2,472 miles over four years. This indicates very infrequent use. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts due to age rather than distance. Given the lack of recorded advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by age rather than mileage. Check the tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spots, as low-use vehicles often suffer from dry rot despite sufficient tread depth. Examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion or seizing, which can occur when a car sits for long periods. Additionally, inspect the suspension bushes and underbody for early signs of structural rust, as the MOT does not always detect minor surface corrosion until it reaches a failure threshold.
