2016 Toyota Auris 1.2L Petrol · RK66 CJO

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, maintaining a consistently stable maintenance record. The most recent test conducted on 7 July 2025 at 31,542 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This trend of clean passes across the last five years indicates that the vehicle has remained in good mechanical condition and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation during this period. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old Auris, averaging approximately 3,154 miles per year. Between July 2021 and July 2025, the car covered only 7,214 miles, showing a consistent pattern of light use rather than long periods of inactivity followed by heavy bursts. While this low mileage suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it raises questions regarding the age-related degradation of rubber-based parts and fluids which do not age out if the vehicle has sat stationary for extended intervals. While the MOT history shows no faults, a physical inspection must focus on components affected by low-mileage operation. The buyer should check for sidewall cracking on the tyres, as aged rubber can perish regardless of tread depth. The brake system should be inspected for corrosion or seized calipers, as infrequent use often leads to surface rust on the discs. Additionally, the suspension bushes and split boots should be checked for signs of cracking, as these materials become brittle over a decade regardless of the low mileage recorded.
