2002 Toyota Yaris 1.5L Petrol · WA02 AKK

This Toyota Yaris presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent test on 1 October 2024 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed a test on 27 September 2024, the lack of recorded defects suggests a minor administrative or procedural failure rather than a mechanical deficiency, as it passed four days later at the same mileage. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle age. It has covered approximately 6,494 miles per year over 24 years. Between 14 September 2021 and 2 October 2023, the car accumulated 18,353 miles, indicating regular use. The mileage remained static at 155,862 miles between the September and October 2024 tests, confirming the vehicle was not driven significantly during that specific inspection window. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this vintage, showing no advisories or failures for suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions over the last five years. Such a sparse record suggests either a very high standard of preventative maintenance or a lenient testing regime. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and chassis rails, as these are common failure points for 2002 models that may not always be flagged in a clean MOT history. Checking for oil leaks and assessing the condition of the rubber components in the engine bay is advised given the 155,862 total miles.
