Our Verdict
This 2016 Toyota Yaris presents an exceptionally clean MOT record with five consecutive first-time passes and no recorded advisories. With a modest 51,381 miles on the clock, it is a very strong prospect for a UK buyer seeking a reliable small hatchback.
When inspecting this Yaris, verify that the physical condition matches the unblemished MOT history by checking for any undocumented body repairs or uneven panel gaps. Examine the service record to confirm that the oil changes and routine maintenance have kept pace with the annual mileage accumulation.
During your test drive, pay close attention to the 998.0cc three-cylinder petrol engine. Ensure it idles smoothly and accelerates cleanly through the gears without hesitation. Check that all cabin electronics, windows, and air conditioning function correctly, as these are not fully tested during a standard MOT.
The 998.0cc petrol engine in this Yaris is designed for high fuel efficiency, making it very economical for city driving and daily commuting. Insurance groups for this engine variant tend to be low, helping to keep annual premium costs manageable for younger or newer drivers.
Road tax rates will depend on the specific VED band applicable to a September 2016 petrol hatchback. Combined with low typical maintenance outlays for a mainstream Japanese supermini, the estimated annual running cost sits around £800-£1,000 depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
While the MOT history from 2021 to 2025 is entirely clean with zero failures or advisories, a physical inspection is still essential. Check the tread depth and condition of all four tyres, ensuring even wear across the contact patches, and inspect the brake discs and pads for scoring or excessive lips.
Look closely at the blue paintwork for any car park dings, stone chips, or lacquer peel. Inside the cabin, check the upholstery for wear and test every seatbelt and dashboard warning light to ensure proper operation before finalising the purchase.
