2011 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · RO61 EYD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a clean record following a period of inconsistency. The most recent MOT test on 27 July 2023 at 92,520 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years were successfully rectified. While the history shows intermittent failures, the transition to a clean pass suggests the vehicle is currently maintained to a standard that meets minimum safety and emissions requirements. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-to-moderate urban vehicle, averaging approximately 6,168 miles per year. Between July 2021 and August 2022, the car covered only 46 miles, which suggests a period of significant inactivity or storage. However, it then covered 2,506 miles between the August 2022 and July 2023 tests. This low annual mileage generally reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and the corrosion of brake discs due to sitting. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the specific areas that caused the failures in 2021 and 2022, although the provided data does not detail the exact nature of those faults. Given the age of the Yaris, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is essential, as these are common points of failure for this model. Additionally inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of cracking or fatigue, as low-mileage often masks age-related perish of rubber components that occurs regardless of distance driven.
