2016 Toyota Yaris 1.3L Petrol · YA16 ACJ

The 2016 Toyota Yaris presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 28 October 2025 at 115,368 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior annual tests from October 2022 through October 2024 also passed with no advisories or faults logged, showing consistent compliance across the recorded period. The mileage progression supports typical use for a ten-year-old vehicle. The record shows 80,544 miles on 18 October 2022, rising to 94,864 by 26 October 2023, 105,424 by 28 October 2024, and 115,368 by 28 October 2025. This equates to roughly 11,500 miles per year, matching the expected average and indicating regular but not excessive wear on drivetrain and consumable items. The data is sparse in detail, with no advisories listed, so the clean pass history offers limited insight into component condition. On 18 October 2022 the vehicle failed and passed on the same day at 80,544 miles, though the record shows no defects cited for either outcome. This anomaly suggests an administrative or procedural retest rather than a repaired fault, but a buyer should verify the circumstances with the test station. Given the absence of flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion entries, no recurring mechanical trend is evident. A prospective buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, brake calipers, and underbody corrosion given the car's age and mileage. The clean MOT trail implies previous owners kept basic statutory compliance, yet unrecorded wear on tyres, wiper blades, and exhaust emissions systems remains possible without advisories to warn of impending replacement.
