2017 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · CE17 PYJ

The Toyota Aygo presents a clean and stable MOT history, with the most recent test on 27 August 2025 at 72,658 miles showing no defects—an outcome repeated across all five recorded examinations since July 2021. This consistency suggests the vehicle has undergone regular, competent maintenance, with no recurring advisories or failures to indicate neglect or systemic issues. The absence of even minor defects in the latest test implies that consumables like tyres, brakes, and lights have been proactively replaced, while structural and mechanical components remain within tolerance. For a vehicle of this age and mileage, such a flawless record is uncommon and points to either meticulous ownership or a well-documented service history that preempted potential problems. Mileage accumulation has been steady and predictable, averaging around 8,073 miles per year —a figure typical for its class and age. The gap between the 2021 test at 44,369 miles and the 2022 test at 45,609 miles (just 1,240 miles over 12 months) suggests either a period of disuse or a secondary registration, though this is not unusual for urban or commuter vehicles. By contrast, the jump from 45,609 miles in 2022 to 48,118 miles in 2023 (2,509 miles) and subsequent increases align with more normal annual usage. There are no red flags in the mileage pattern to suggest abuse or prolonged neglect, though the low annual mileage may mean some wear-prone components—such as suspension bushes or brake pads—could be approaching their natural service limits sooner than on a higher-mileage example. Given the absence of MOT advisories or failures, a buyer should still conduct a targeted inspection of high-wear areas that aren’t always caught in a basic test. Pay particular attention to suspension components , including coil springs, anti-roll bars, and bushings, as these can degrade without immediate safety implications but may affect handling. Brake system integrity should be verified—check for uneven wear on discs, binding calipers, or excessive play in the pedal, even though the MOT history shows no issues. Corrosion is another silent risk; inspect wheel arches, sills, and underbody for surface rust or structural weakening, especially if the vehicle has spent time in damp or salty conditions. Finally, while the emissions record is clean, a pre-purchase diagnostic scan for pending faults—such as sensor drift or minor electrical gremlins—could reveal early-stage problems not yet critical enough to fail an MOT.
