2009 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · WF58 XME

The vehicle currently presents a sound roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on January 20 2026 at 77,242 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that previously identified issues have been addressed. This follows a period of generally clean records since 2022, suggesting the owner is proactive in maintaining the vehicle to meet MOT safety standards. The mileage profile is notably low for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage over the last three years, with a gap of 3,913 miles between January 2024 and 2025, and another 3,913 miles recorded since. While low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or accelerated corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary despite the low annual mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural and suspension elements noted during the January 2025 test at 73,329 miles. The tester flagged a corroded offside rear coil spring and slight corrosion on the rear underside of the vehicle. Although the 2026 pass suggests no failure, a thorough underside inspection is necessary to ensure the rust has not progressed into a structural weakness on the sills or floor pans. Checking the coil spring for signs of fatigue or thinning is also advisable, as corrosion on these components often leads to sudden failure in older Toyotas.
