2018 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · FV67 KOU

Consistent roadworthiness has defined this Toyota Aygo throughout its six recorded MOT examinations, culminating in a clean pass on 26 May 2026. The vehicle has maintained a stable history, with only two minor advisory events appearing in the test records since 2020. This pattern indicates that the vehicle has avoided significant structural or mechanical failures during its time on the road, though the presence of brake and tyre advisories in previous years confirms that the car is subject to the standard wear and tear expected of a city-focused hatchback. Accumulating only 23,108 miles over an eight-year lifespan results in a low annual average of approximately 2,888 miles. While this limited usage suggests the drivetrain has not been subjected to high-stress motorway cycles, the low mileage profile necessitates a careful inspection of components that may suffer from under-use. Vehicles that sit for extended periods can experience accelerated surface corrosion on brake discs and potential stiffening of rubber suspension components, as the mechanical parts are not cycled through their full range of motion frequently enough to maintain optimal lubrication and flexibility. During your test drive, focus your attention on the braking system given the 2022 advisory regarding pitted and scored front discs. Although the vehicle passed its most recent inspection without issue, you should listen for any grinding noises or feel for rhythmic vibrations through the brake pedal when applying pressure at varying speeds. If the steering wheel shudders under braking, it may suggest that the previous surface wear has progressed to warping, requiring a replacement of the discs and pads. Ensure the vehicle tracks straight under heavy braking and that the pedal feel remains firm rather than spongy. The tyre advisories noted in early 2025 regarding uneven edge wear warrant a practical check of the front suspension geometry and tyre condition. Inspect the inner and outer treads of the current tyres for signs of feathering or irregular wear patterns, which can be symptomatic of misaligned tracking or worn suspension bushings. While driving, listen for any metallic knocking or clunking sounds when traversing speed bumps or uneven road surfaces, as these are common indicators of play in the anti-roll bar links or lower suspension arms. Confirm that the steering response is direct and free from excessive play or wandering at higher speeds.
