2018 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · KE12 AEE

This Toyota Aygo has demonstrated consistent MOT compliance over five consecutive annual tests, all passing without defects or advisories. The most recent inspection on 2025-08-08 confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, with no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or unresolved structural concerns. The absence of any advisories or failings across these tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the lack of recorded service intervals means wear-and-tear items like suspension bushes, brake pads, and fluid levels cannot be confirmed as proactively addressed. The mileage progression indicates unusually low annual usage, averaging just 2,322 miles per year over eight years. This pattern is notable for a vehicle of this age, as periods of inactivity can accelerate deterioration in components like tyres, battery health, and suspension seals due to prolonged static stress. The largest gap between tests—approximately 2,500 miles—occurred between 2021-08-31 and 2022-08-03, yet the vehicle still passed without issue, implying either minimal wear during that period or that critical components were not yet at failure thresholds. The overall trend of gradual mileage accumulation aligns with light usage, but this does not preclude hidden issues from extended storage or neglect of fluid changes. Given the clean MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of high-wear items that are not routinely tested. Focus on the suspension system, particularly the condition of coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers, as these are prone to degradation even with low mileage. Examine the brake system for uneven wear on discs or calipers, as binding or excessive noise could indicate past neglect. Corrosion should be checked at wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, especially if the vehicle has spent extended periods exposed to moisture. While the MOT record provides no red flags, these areas are critical for long-term reliability and should not be overlooked.
