2002 Vauxhall Agila 1.2L Petrol · HF52 TYP

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass in January 2026 at 74,151 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of improvement after a significant failure in early 2025. While the car previously required multiple repairs to meet safety standards, the lack of advisories in the most recent test indicates that the owner addressed the flagged mechanical and consumable issues and has since maintained a stable level of upkeep. At approximately 24 years old, the recorded mileage of 74,151 miles is remarkably low, averaging only 3,100 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns between 2023 and early 2026, where the car covered roughly 8,000 miles over a three-year span. This low-frequency use often suggests less wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it also increases the risk of degradation in rubber-based components and corrosion due to inactivity, as evidenced by the perishing tyre noted in the 2025 record. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and tyre condition. The January 2025 failure highlighted both corroded front coil springs and excessively worn ball joints, which are common failure points on older Vauxalls. Although these were replaced, a check for fresh rust on the springs or play in the joints is necessary. Additionally, the previous inner-edge wear on the front tyres suggests an underlying alignment issue that should be verified to ensure the current set of tyres is not wearing prematurely.
