2021 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · CP21 OGF

A clean and stable MOT record defines this 2021 Toyota Aygo, with three passes carrying no advisories and a fourth showing only minor observations. The most recent test on 27 August 2026 returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing the trend established at the January 2024 examination. The single advisory-bearing test, conducted on 10 January 2025, flagged a lightly worn front brake disc and a small offside front driveshaft oil leak, neither of which was serious enough to fail the vehicle. Across four recorded examinations, there have been no failures, no repeated component flags, and no structural or corrosion advisories, presenting a consistently tidy roadworthiness history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,335 miles per year, which is broadly typical for a small city-oriented hatchback of this age. The mileage progression across the recorded tests is steady and shows no sudden spikes or periods of non-use that might suggest the vehicle was laid up. This kind of usage pattern tends to produce gradual, even wear on consumables rather than the accelerated deterioration seen on high-mileage vehicles, though brake and suspension components will still require periodic attention given the car's age. For a prospective buyer, the advisories from January 2025 warrant focused inspection during any physical viewing or test drive. The noted front brake disc wear, described as pitted or scored but not seriously weakened, means the discs will likely be approaching the threshold for replacement within the next service interval; on a test drive, listen for any grinding or pulsing through the brake pedal under firm application, and check for excessive lipping on the disc edge when visually inspected. The offside front driveshaft oil seal leak, although minor at the 2025 test, should be re-examined for any fresh seepage around the inner joint boot and constant-velocity gaiter, as oil contamination on the surrounding rubber and suspension components would indicate the leak has progressed. Beyond the flagged items, it is worth paying particular attention to the areas most commonly affected on Aygo vehicles of this generation, including the front suspension top mounts, lower arm bushes, and coil springs for any knocking or clonking over uneven surfaces. Steering should remain precise without vibration or pulling to either side, and the gearbox, whether manual or automated, should engage cleanly without clonks on changes of direction. A thorough underbody check for any emerging corrosion on subframe, brake lines, and exhaust mounting points is advisable given the vehicle's age, even though no such defects have yet appeared on the MOT record, as early-stage surface rust on these components is typical for cars exposed to British winter road conditions.
