Our Verdict
This 2012 Toyota Aygo is a sensible buy for a budget-conscious buyer, with a largely clean MOT record and consistent annual mileage. The only blemish is a single 2023 failure for front position lamps, which was rectified and passed the same day.
When viewing this Aygo, ask to see the full service history to confirm the 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine has been serviced at recommended intervals, as regular oil changes are key to longevity on high-mileage city cars. Use the clean recent MOT record as leverage, but note the 2023 lamp failure shows the car had a minor electrical oversight at one point, so check all lights function correctly on inspection. As a 2012 petrol model, it is exempt from ULEZ and Clean Air Zone charges, making it a practical choice for urban use.
The 998cc petrol engine in this Aygo is well known for excellent fuel economy, typically returning over 60 mpg in mixed driving, which keeps weekly fuel costs low. As a pre-March 2013 petrol car under 1.0 litre, it falls into a low VED band with minimal annual road tax. Insurance groups for the Aygo are among the lowest on the market, and routine maintenance such as tyres, brakes, and filters is inexpensive due to the car's simplicity.
The only MOT failure on record occurred on 1 September 2023 at 79,299 miles, with both nearside and offside front position lamps not working; verify all front and rear lights, including sidelights, operate correctly as a precaution. Given the car has now passed four MOTs with no defects recorded since that date, general wear items such as tyres, brakes, and suspension should be in reasonable order, but still check for uneven tyre wear or corrosion underneath. As this is a 14-year-old vehicle, inspect the bodywork on the white panels for stone chips or rust around wheel arches and sills, common on older small hatchbacks.
The white 998cc petrol Aygo registered FN12UMU has covered 94,301 miles as of its July 2026 MOT, averaging roughly 7,700 miles per year since first registration in March 2012. Its MOT history shows four consecutive passes with no defects between 2024 and 2026, and a 2023 failure limited to both front position lamps that was immediately retested and cleared. No aggregate model reliability data was available, but the individual history for this car suggests careful, routine use.
No aggregate MOT reliability data was provided for the Toyota Aygo, so assessment is based solely on this vehicle's individual history.
