2010 Toyota IQ 1.0L Petrol · YF59 XYA

The vehicle presents a highly stable maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 16 January 2026 at 86,984 miles with zero defects recorded. This unblemished record stretching back to January 2022 indicates consistent mechanical reliability and diligent upkeep by the previous owner. There are no recurring faults to suggest a worsening condition; the mechanical integrity remains stable. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally light use for a 2010 vehicle, averaging roughly 5,436 miles annually. Between the January 2022 test at 77,447 miles and the most recent January 2026 test at 86,984 miles, the vehicle accumulated just under 9,537 miles over four years, equating to approximately 2,384 miles per year. The increments are remarkably consistent, showing no sudden surges or alarming gaps in the MOT history that would suggest long periods of neglect or sudden high-mileage runs. Despite the pristine MOT record, a physical inspection must focus on issues commonly associated with low-mileage, older vehicles. Prolonged standing can cause seized brake calipers and degraded suspension bushes, so check the braking system for binding and the coil springs for corrosion. Examine the undercarriage closely for structural rust, as short trips prevent underbody components from drying out, accelerating corrosion on the exhaust and chassis. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for perishing, as tread depth may remain legal while rubber degrades from age and lack of use.
