2014 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · GD64 AYA

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in basic consumable upkeep. While the most recent test in December 2025 at 33,867 miles passed, the tester flagged advisories for perishing and cracking on three tyres, specifically the offside front, nearside front, and nearside rear. This mirrors a fault from the December 2024 test at 32,427 miles where similar tyre damage was noted, indicating that the rubber is failing due to age rather than mileage-related wear. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,822 miles per year. Between December 2021 and December 2025, the car covered only 3,699 miles, moving from 30,168 to 33,867 miles. This low usage suggests the engine and drivetrain components have seen minimal mechanical stress. However, the long periods of stationary time between annual tests likely contribute to the degradation of rubber-based components, evidenced by the recurring tyre cracking in the two most recent MOT records. A buyer must inspect the physical condition of all tyres immediately, as the recorded perishing suggests the rubber is nearing the end of its structural life despite remaining tread. Given the low mileage, inspection should also check for seized brake calipers or corroded discs, which often occur when vehicles sit unused for extended periods. The structural integrity of the chassis appears sound based on the lack of corrosion advisories between 2021 and 2023, but the suspension bushes and rubber mounts should be checked for cracking or deformation resulting from age and lack of regular use.
