2018 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · GV18 OOY

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the most recent inspection indicates a shift from a clean record to early-stage wear. While the car passed tests from 2022 through 2025 with zero defects, the May 2026 test at 25,168 miles introduced several mechanical advisories. This suggests that while the vehicle has been maintained well for years, components are now beginning to require preventative attention. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,146 miles per year. Between the 2025 test at 22,190 miles and the 2026 test at 25,168 miles, the car covered only 2,978 miles. This low usage often results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it can lead to the degradation of rubber components and brake surfaces due to long periods of inactivity or short-trip low-distance driving. A buyer should inspect the front suspension specifically, as the tester flagged worn anti-roll bar linkages on both the nearside and offside. Although these did not result in a failure this time, they indicate the start of a failure trend in the rubber bushings. The tester also noted that both front tyres are worn close to the legal limit and showing uneven edge wear. This specific pattern often suggests an alignment issue or worn suspension geometry, which should be verified to prevent premature replacement of new tyres.
