2011 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · AK61 ABU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test in January 2026 at 99,639 miles resulted in an initial failure due to defective headlamp lenses and worn front tyres. While the car passed immediately after these items were rectified, the presence of tyres worn to the legal limit suggests the owner only addresses consumable components when forced by a failure rather than during routine servicing. At 99,639 miles over 15 years, the Toyota Aygo has averaged approximately 6,600 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-mileage city driving patterns. The data shows consistent usage intervals, with roughly 17,000 miles covered between January 2024 and January 2025, and another 18,000 miles between early 2025 and early 2026. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which is generally positive for preventing the degradation of rubber components and braking systems. A buyer should pay close attention to the suspension and braking system during a physical inspection. The tester flagged the nearside rear service brake binding in both 2023 and 2025, indicating a persistent issue that may require a caliper overhaul or thorough cleaning. Furthermore, the 2025 record noted worn front suspension arm bushes and an offside front anti-roll bar linkage. Although these did not cause a failure at the time, they represent signs of age-related rubber wear that should be checked for play or further cracking to ensure they have not deteriorated into a safety risk.
