2012 Vauxhall Agila 1.2L Petrol · DA12 ACU

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 17 June 2025 at 69 143 miles with no defects recorded, confirming it meets current roadworthiness standards. The preceding year’s test on 20 June 2024 showed a failure at 66 790 miles despite the absence of recorded defects, indicating a transient issue that was subsequently resolved. Overall the maintenance trend is stable; no recurring faults appear in the five‑year window, and the car has been retested promptly after the anomaly. Mileage progression from 56 780 miles in June 2022 to 69 143 miles in June 2025 represents a gain of 12 363 miles over four years, averaging roughly 3 090 miles annually. This rate is well below the typical 5 000‑plus miles per year for a 14‑year‑old vehicle, suggesting light use or periods of storage. The jump of 5 986 miles between June 2023 (62 776 miles) and June 2024 (66 790 miles) marks a notable increase, possibly reflecting a period of higher utilisation or a single long‑distance trip. The MOT record is otherwise clean, with no major mileage‑related wear patterns evident. A prospective buyer should inspect the suspension bushes for corrosion and cracking, test the brake calipers for binding and examine the discs for uneven wear, as low‑mileage cars can still develop latent issues if they have been stored. Check the exhaust system for rust perforations and assess the underbody and chassis for structural corrosion, especially around weld points. Verify that the 2024 failure was fully addressed—review service records or ask the seller for evidence of any remedial work on the brake line, electronic modules, or emission control hardware. A visual check of engine mounts and a thorough under‑carriage scan will help confirm the low‑mileage claim and ensure no hidden deterioration.
