2007 Toyota Yaris Zinc 1.3L Petrol · TKZ 3904

The vehicle currently sits in a non-roadworthy state following a failure on July 6, 2026 at 163,264 miles. While the history shows a pattern of intermittent passes, the most recent failure without recorded defects suggests an administrative oversight or an incomplete testing entry. The overall maintenance trend appears erratic, as the car has frequently failed its test immediately prior to or after successful inspections. This pattern indicates a reactive ownership approach where repairs are only addressed to satisfy the annual test rather than through a preventative maintenance schedule. At 19 years old, the 163,264 miles represent an average of approximately 8,600 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage for this age. The data shows a significant increase in activity between July 2021 and October 2022, where the vehicle covered over 4,000 miles in just fifteen months. Conversely, the mileage accumulation slowed considerably between 2022 and 2025, with only roughly 8,700 miles recorded over three years. This fluctuating usage pattern often leads to accelerated degradation of rubber components like suspension bushes and seals despite the relatively low total mileage. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the chassis for structural integrity, as older Yaris models are prone to corrosion in mounting areas. Given the recurring failures throughout the history, close attention should be paid to the brake system for binding calipers or worn suspension geometry that causes excessive play. The lack of recorded advisories on previous passes is unusual for a vehicle of this mileage and suggests that either minor wear was overlooked by testers or was not documented. Verify the state of the exhaust and emissions components to ensure the recent failure does not mask deeper mechanical issues.
