Expert automotive synthesis from historical MOT defect records and market benchmarks.
Our Verdict
Caution is strongly advised. While the v
Prioritise the structural integrity of the chassis. You must request detailed receipts and warranties for the welded repairs performed on the sub-frame and the work carried out on the rear axle beam following the November 2024 failure. Ensure that the 'severely deteriorated' ball joint dust covers noted in the December 2025 test have been addressed, as these are precursors to suspension failure.
Given the high mileage and the evidence of significant rust, this vehicle should be priced well below market average. Negotiate based on the likelihood of further corrosion appearing on the brake hoses and suspension components, which have been recurring themes in the MOT history.
The 998cc engine is designed for efficiency, offering low fuel consumption and placing the car in a lower insurance group, which keeps daily operating costs down. Road tax for this era of Aygo is typically affordable, making it a cheap city commuter in terms of basic overheads.
However, the maintenance costs for this specific car are likely to be higher than average. The history of structural corrosion and high mileage suggests a need for more frequent underbody inspections and suspension repairs. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and a higher-than-normal maintenance budget, are likely to be around £900-£1,200.
A thorough underside inspection is mandatory. Specifically, examine the rear sub-frame and axle beam to assess the quality of the welded repairs mentioned in the 2024 records. Check for any new signs of corrosion on the brake hose ferrules, which were flagged as deteriorating in previous tests.
Check the engine bay for active oil leaks, as this has been a persistent advisory since at least 2023. Finally, inspect the front suspension arm ball joints and the outer drive shaft CV boots, as these have a history of deterioration and failure on this specific vehicle.
This 2012 black Toyota Aygo has covered 136,512 miles, which is substantially higher than the model average. The MOT history indicates a recurring struggle with corrosion, including a serious failure in November 2024 for a seriously weakened axle beam and subsequent welded repairs to the sub-frame. An ongoing oil leak has also been recorded as an advisory across multiple years.
The Aygo generally maintains a respectable 83.6% MOT pass rate, with typical failures often limited to headlamps and suspension arms.
