2022 Toyota Yaris Cross Icon HEV Auto 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · SW72 ACF

This 2022 Toyota Yaris Cross presents a clean roadworthiness record, having passed its initial recorded MOT test in January 2026 after a minor headlamp adjustment. The vehicle initially failed its test on 2026-01-20 due to the nearside headlamp aim being too high, a straightforward rectification that was promptly addressed, resulting in a pass on the very same day with no further defects recorded. This indicates that any immediate mechanical issues were minor and resolved without delay. The recorded mileage of 30,183 miles over approximately four years translates to an average annual accumulation of around 7,546 miles. This usage pattern is typical for a vehicle of its age, suggesting regular but not excessive use. Such mileage generally indicates commensurate wear on consumable items such as tyres, brake components, and suspension bushes, without pointing to periods of prolonged inactivity or unusually high stress. There are no notable gaps in the testing history or sudden mileage increases to suggest unusual usage. With the vehicle having passed its recent MOT without any recorded defects beyond the initial headlamp adjustment, the primary focus for a prospective buyer should be to verify that its current condition aligns with this clean bill of health. During a test drive, pay close attention to the vehicle's braking performance; ensure the pedal feels firm and consistent, with no judder or pulling to one side, which could indicate uneven brake disc wear or binding calipers. Listen for any unusual noises from the suspension over bumps or when turning, as bushes and linkages can begin to show wear at this mileage, even if not yet an MOT failure. Visually inspect the tyres for even wear across the tread and check for any signs of cracking or perishing on the sidewalls, which can occur with age. Examine the bodywork and undercarriage for any signs of corrosion, particularly around structural points and brake pipes, although this is less common on a relatively new vehicle. A thorough pre-purchase inspection by an independent mechanic is always advisable to identify any developing issues that may not yet be severe enough to warrant an MOT advisory or failure.
