2019 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · AE69 UTP

The 2019 Toyota Aygo is currently roadworthy; the most recent MOT on 2025‑09‑08 recorded a pass with zero defects at 17 052 miles. The maintenance trend shows improvement: after a double‑failure on 2024‑08‑27 (low headlamp aim on both sides and rear‑tyre damage), the vehicle returned to a clean pass at the subsequent test, indicating that the identified issues were rectified and have not re‑appeared. Mileage accumulation for this model is unusually low at roughly 2 436 miles per year, reflecting light use or extended periods of inactivity. The recorded progression—5 868 miles in August 2022, 8 600 miles in August 2023 (increase of 2 732 miles), 11 785 miles in August 2024 (increase of 3 185 miles), and 17 052 miles in September 2025 (increase of 5 267 miles)—reveals a recent acceleration in mileage gain, likely due to increased usage in the last twelve months. MOT intervals remain consistent with the standard annual schedule, and the data set is sufficiently dense to track this pattern. Recurring faults centre on lighting and tyre condition. The rear tyre showed slight cracking or perishing in August 2024, and a front tyre had a cut that did not breach the ply in August 2022. The headlamp aim was too low on both near‑side and off‑side units at the same 2024 test. The upper stop lamp, which uses a multi‑source bulb, was reported as partially non‑functional in 2022. A buyer should verify that the headlamp beams are correctly aligned, that all tyres exhibit even tread and no structural damage, and that the stop lamp illuminates fully on both sides. Beyond the documented advisories, a thorough pre‑purchase inspection should cover suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, brake discs and calipers for smooth operation, and the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks. Check the chassis for rust spots, especially around wheel arches and underbody panels, and confirm that the brake fluid level and condition are appropriate. The low overall mileage does not guarantee freedom from wear on these components, so a physical assessment of the drivetrain and suspension is essential before purchase.
