2015 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Hybrid electric · RX15 OBZ

The 2015 Toyota Yaris presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 8 October 2025 at 29,147 miles with zero defects recorded. Earlier that same day, a separate test failed solely on an offside side repeater not working, a minor lighting fault that was clearly rectified before the subsequent pass. The preceding tests on 12 September 2024 at 26,417 miles, 10 October 2023 at 23,243 miles, and 10 October 2022 at 21,090 miles all passed without advisories or failures, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep across multiple years. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of light use. Between October 2022 and September 2024, the car covered roughly 5,327 miles over nearly two years. From September 2024 to October 2025, it added approximately 2,730 miles in just over twelve months. Over its full eleven-year life, the recorded 29,147 miles equates to roughly 2,650 miles annually, well below the UK average. The gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows a modest uptick in usage, but the overall pattern remains one of gentle, low-mileage ownership with no sudden surges that would raise concern about neglected servicing intervals. With no recurring mechanical faults on record, the MOT history offers no red flags around suspension, brakes, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity. A prospective buyer should still inspect the underside for surface corrosion given the car's age, even though low mileage and dry-weather use often preserve these areas better than high-mileage equivalents. Tyre condition and age deserve attention, as rubber degrades over time regardless of tread depth. The nearside and offside repeater lenses should be checked for moisture ingress, given the single lighting failure flagged in October 2025. Brake discs and pads should be measured for wear, as low-mileage vehicles can develop lipping and corrosion from prolonged standing rather than from use. A brief road test will confirm whether the clutch, gearbox, and suspension bushes feel tight or whether any rattles suggest components have dried out from extended periods of inactivity.
