2022 Toyota Yaris Excel HEV CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric · ST64 SAL

The 2022 Toyota Yaris Excel HEV CVT is currently roadworthy, with a stable maintenance history showing two consecutive MOT passes. The most recent test on 2026-02-04 at 11,066 miles recorded no defects, indicating consistent upkeep and reliable mechanical condition. The vehicle has passed all safety and emissions checks, with no advisories or failures noted, suggesting the owner has maintained it to a high standard. The mileage progression shows a low annual average of approximately 2,766 miles over four years, which is below typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The gap between the 2025-02-12 test at 8,677 miles and the 2026-02-04 test at 11,066 miles reflects a modest increase of 2,389 miles over 12 months, consistent with light to moderate use. There are no signs of rapid mileage accumulation or long periods of inactivity, and the MOT records are clean and unbroken, reinforcing the impression of careful ownership. Given the low mileage and consistent MOT results, the primary areas for in-person inspection should focus on components that degrade over time regardless of usage. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of premature wear or cracking, as these can affect ride comfort and handling. Inspect the brake discs and pads for any uneven wear or corrosion, particularly on the rear axle where binding calipers were flagged in previous tests. Also examine the exhaust system for rust or leaks, and verify the structural integrity of the chassis and wheel arches for hidden corrosion. Finally, test the hybrid battery and electric motor systems for any warning lights or performance issues, as these are critical to the HEV's operation.
