2017 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · AE67 OVY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in December 2025 at 60,251 miles showed a pass following an initial failure due to an obstructed windscreen and low brake pads. While the car meets the minimum standard, the recurring failures across multiple years suggest that the owner only addresses mechanical issues when they threaten an MOT rather than performing scheduled preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. The car covered 4,133 miles between the December 2024 and December 2025 tests, and another 6,162 miles in the year preceding that between December 2023 and 2024. This steady, relatively low annual mileage suggests the vehicle may have been left stationary for extended periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components despite low mechanical wear on the drivetrain. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres and braking system, as the 2024 failure highlighted multiple perished sidewalls and a structural bulge. These are clear signs of dry rot and age-related degradation rather than tread wear. The 2025 report of low front brake pads indicates that the friction material is nearing the end of its service life. You should check the remaining thickness of the pads and verify that the offside front bumper damage has not compromised underlying mounting brackets or affected the alignment of the assembly.
