2012 Vauxhall Agila 1.2L Petrol · HN12 CVF

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record in its most recent testing cycles. The latest MOT conducted in July 2025 at 35,862 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure was recorded in July 2023, the subsequent two-year period without recurring advisories suggests that any issues identified at that time were successfully rectified. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,500 miles per year. Between the July 2022 test at 28,691 miles and the July 2024 test at 33,165 miles, the car covered 4,474 miles. This low usage suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components compared to average examples. However, such low annual mileage often leads to age-related degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown that MOT tests may not capture. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from stationary periods rather than mileage. Check the brake discs for corrosion and tyres for dry rot, as these often perish when a vehicle is driven infrequently. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as the age of the material can lead to failure regardless of the low distance travelled. Given the clean history, the structural integrity of the chassis likely remains sound, but a visual check for underbody corrosion is necessary to ensure no hidden rust has developed during long periods of inactivity.
