2012 Toyota Auris 1.6L Petrol · YY61 OXH

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 12 February 2026 at 69,006 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable maintenance trend across the last five years of testing. This lack of recorded failures suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets DVSA requirements consistently, with mechanical preventative measures likely addressed prior to annual testing. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,900 miles per year. Between January 2022 at 58,207 miles and February 2026 at 69,006 miles, the car covered only 10,799 miles, indicating very infrequent use. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such low usage can also increase the risk of rubber-based components degrading or brake components seizing due to periods of inactivity or limited use. Because the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical or structural faults, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by age rather than high mileage. A buyer should check for signs of surface corrosion on the undercarriage and examine the suspension bushes for cracks which occur over time regardless of distance driven. Given the low annual mileage, inspect the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall rot and verify that brake discs are not heavily pitted with rust from sitting stationary.
