2021 Toyota Yaris Design HEV CVT 1.5L Hybrid electric (clean) · WG71 ATX

A consistent record of clean roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the most recent MOT on 06 March 2026 showing no defects alongside a clean result from 07 March 2025. The absence of any recorded failures or advisories across these two consecutive tests indicates that the vehicle has met all statutory safety and environmental standards without any flagged issues regarding structural integrity, braking efficiency, or lighting systems. The recorded mileage of 33,425 miles suggests a relatively low annual accumulation of approximately 6,685 miles over its five-year lifespan. This usage profile is consistent with typical light-duty driving patterns. From a mechanical perspective, this level of mileage means that while major drivetrain components may have relatively low wear, consumables such as tyres, brake pads, and suspension bushes are likely at a stage where their condition should be closely monitored, even if they have not yet triggered MOT advisories. Given that no specific mechanical defects or advisories have been documented in the official history, a test drive should focus on verifying the smooth operation of the hybrid drivetrain and the CVT transmission. Listen for any unusual whining or droning noises from the electric motor or engine during transitions between power modes, and ensure there is no hesitation or shuddering during acceleration. The absence of recorded brake issues suggests the system is currently compliant, but you should check for any pedal sponginess or vibration through the footwell when applying the brakes at varying speeds to ensure the hydraulic system and discs remain in good order. With no recorded issues regarding the suspension or steering, pay close attention to the vehicle's composure over uneven road surfaces. Listen for any rhythmic knocking or clunking sounds from the front or rear suspension linkages, which could indicate wear in the bushes or coil springs that has not yet reached a failure threshold. Additionally, monitor the steering for any pulling to one side or excessive play in the wheel, ensuring the vehicle maintains a straight tracking to confirm the alignment and steering components are performing as expected.
