2021 Toyota Yaris Icon HEV CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · SC21 MXO

The vehicle currently maintains a good roadworthiness status, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 14 May 2026 at 17,966 miles which returned zero defects. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory as the issues identified in the previous year's test have have been rectified prior to the latest inspection. This suggests the current owner is proactive in addressing flagged advisories rather than allowing faults to persist. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per annum. The data shows steady progression between the June 2024 test at 10,303 miles and the June 2025 test at 14,255 miles, representing an increase of roughly 4,000 miles. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension, it can occasionally lead to rubber component degradation or brake surface corrosion if the car sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front axle and braking system. The June 2025 test flagged the nearside front tyre for perishing and edge wear, alongside pitting and scoring on both front brake discs. Although these were cleared in the 2026 test, the buyer should check for signs of uneven pad wear or caliper sticking to ensure the components were properly serviced. Inspecting the tyre sidewalls for dry cracking is essential given the low-mileage usage which often masks aging rubber age despite minimal use.
