2011 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · CV11 ABK

The Aygo holds a current MOT pass from March 2026 at 162,722 miles with no defects recorded, and the two preceding tests in December 2024 and December 2023 also returned clean passes. A same-day failure and retest in December 2023 at 136,168 miles suggests a rectified issue, but the absence of any recorded advisories or defects across the entire visible history is unusual for a fifteen-year-old city car. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the lack of documented wear items raises questions about whether advisories were omitted or components were replaced proactively. Mileage accumulation has been uneven. The vehicle covered roughly 2,900 miles between January and December 2023, then jumped nearly 19,800 miles in the twelve months to December 2024, before settling to 6,700 miles in the fifteen months to the latest test. That sharp increase in 2024 could indicate a change of keeper or usage pattern, possibly motorway commuting, which loads the driveline differently to urban stop-start cycles. The current annualised average of 10,800 miles sits within normal bounds, but the recent low utilisation since late 2024 means rubber and hydraulic components may have aged without regular heat cycling. No suspension, braking, corrosion, or emissions faults appear in the record, yet a vehicle of this vintage and mileage would typically show advisory notes for front lower arm bushes, rear beam axle corrosion, or brake disc lip formation. The clean sheets could reflect diligent pre-MOT preparation by a trader or enthusiast owner, but they equally mask latent wear. A buyer should inspect the rear brake binding tendency common on this platform, verify the timing chain tensioner rattle on cold start, and probe the front subframe and rear axle mounting points for structural corrosion that often escapes a standard test. Tyre date codes and brake fluid condition will reveal whether the low recent mileage has deferred essential fluid and rubber renewal.
