2009 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · FE59 AAX

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status following the most recent MOT test on 18 June 2025 at 42,453 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. Prior to that, the 10 June 2024 examination produced a fail then an immediate pass on the same day at 39,619 miles, again with no faults itemised, and the 13 June 2023 test passed clean at 38,078 miles. The mechanical trend stays stable across the three-year window, though the duplicated fail-and-pass cycles without recorded advisories point to procedural correction rather than deterioration. At nearly 17 years old, this 2009 Aygo carries 42,453 recorded miles, a low average near 2,500 miles per year. The clock moved from 38,078 in mid-June 2023 to 39,619 by June 2024, then to 42,453 in June 2025, showing steady light use with no mileage spikes. Such a pattern suggests gentle consumable wear but also possible long stationary periods. The keeper maintained annual test discipline, yet the unexplained fail flags on two consecutive years merit a DVSA record query for any omitted minor defects. A buyer must physically scrutinise the suspension bushes and front coil springs for age-related cracking, given the car's low motion intervals. The MOT history logged no brake or corrosion issues, but we advise measuring brake disc wear and testing rear calipers for binding after standstill. Exhaust emissions clearly satisfied the tester, still a cold-run check on the three-cylinder unit is sensible. Structural integrity around the sills and rear subframe requires ramp confirmation, since moisture during storage can promote hidden rust. The absence of advisories in the official list does not remove the need for a focused pre-purchase inspection on these components.
