2014 Toyota Auris 1.8L Hybrid electric (clean) · SL14 HPY

This Toyota Auris demonstrates an exceptionally stable maintenance trend and remains roadworthy based on the available data. The most recent MOT on 5 September 2025 at 34,368 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to October 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a high state of mechanical repair. The mileage is remarkably low for a twelve year old vehicle, averaging roughly 2,864 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and predictable over the last five years, growing from 25,550 miles in October 2021 to 34,368 miles by September 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps in the testing history that would suggest undisclosed heavy use or prolonged periods of neglect. While the MOT record is flawless, the low annual mileage introduces specific risks associated with vehicle dormancy. A buyer should physically inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting and check for binding calipers, as brakes often seize when a car is not driven frequently. The tyres should be checked for flat spots or age-related cracking in the sidewalls, even if the tread depth remains legal. Rubber components such as suspension bushes and engine mounts can perish over time regardless of mileage. I recommend a manual check of these perishables and a verification of the fluid levels and colours to ensure the oil and coolant have been changed according to the manufacturer's time-based intervals rather than just mileage.
