2023 Toyota Yaris Cross Design HEV Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric · SP23 XAD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT test on 20 March 2026, though the immediate history reveals a recent lapse in consumable maintenance. The car initially failed on that same day at 27,440 miles due to the nearside front tyre being below the legal 1.6mm limit and the offside front tyre showing significant edge wear. While these issues were rectified immediately to secure a pass, the failure indicates that the owner neglected basic artwork inspection intervals. At 27,440 miles over three years, the Yaris Cross averages approximately 9,147 miles per annum. This usage aligns closely with typical national averages for a hybrid crossover, suggesting the vehicle has not been subjected to excessive stress on the drivetrain or suspension. The data set remains relatively clean, as there are no reports of major mechanical failures or structural defects recorded in the available test history. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension and alignment geometry, as the edge wear noted on the offside tyre during the March test often points to tracking being out of specification or worn suspension bushes. Given the low mileage and the hybrid nature, it is also advisable to check the brake pads and discs for corrosion and to ensure the tyres are now wearing evenly, as the previous failure suggests a reactive rather than proactive approach to maintenance.
