2016 TOYOTA AYGO1.0L Petrol

This Toyota Aygo presents a stable and exceptionally clean maintenance profile. The most recent MOT on 21 December 2023 at 11,030 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to July 2019, indicating a vehicle that has required no corrective mechanical work to meet roadworthiness standards for several years. The mileage is remarkably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 1,103 miles per year. Between the July 2019 test at 8,763 miles and the December 2023 test at 11,030 miles, the car covered only 2,267 miles over more than four years. This suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary or has been used exclusively for very short, infrequent journeys. While the MOT record is devoid of mechanical failures, the low usage pattern introduces specific risks. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the braking system for binding calipers or seized sliders, as lack of use often leads to corrosion in these components. The tyres and wiper blades should be checked for age-related perishing or flat spots, regardless of the remaining tread depth. Attention must also be paid to the battery health and fluid condition. Vehicles that stand for long periods often suffer from premature battery failure and moisture accumulation in the engine oil. Check for any signs of chassis corrosion in areas prone to salt traps, as low-mileage cars are not immune to structural rust if stored in damp environments.
