2009 Toyota Auris 1.3L Petrol · WG59 ACF

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 6 January 2026 at 82,588 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test on 27 December 2025, the record shows no specific defects for that failure, which often suggests a clerical error or a minor issue resolved immediately. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 4,858 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained consistent, with 2,838 miles added between December 2023 and December 2024, and 3,066 miles added between December 2024 and January 2026. This steady, low-volume usage suggests the car has not suffered from extreme periods of standing, which typically causes seals to perish or batteries to fail. The absence of any advisories or failures across the last five years is unusual for a seventeen year old vehicle. There are no mentions of corrosion, worn suspension bushes, or brake disc pitting in the DVSA records. This lack of flagged wear suggests a high standard of previous ownership or a vehicle that has seen very light duty. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Check for perished rubber tyres and brittle window seals, as these age even when the car is not driven. Inspect the underbody for surface rust and check the brake fluid condition, as low-mileage cars often skip essential fluid intervals despite passing the basic MOT requirements.
