2006 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · KX06 AFD

The Toyota Aygo is currently roadworthy, with the 15 January 2026 MOT at 105,731 miles recording a pass and no defects. The maintenance trend stays stable. Two failure entries on 25 January 2024 and 13 February 2025 show zero mechanical defects logged, and each preceded a pass within days at nearly the same mileage. Such repeats suggest administrative or presentation issues rather than deteriorating mechanics. Recorded mileage of 105,731 on a 2006 plate averages 5,287 miles yearly, low for twenty years of service. The recent record tells a steadier story: odometer climbed from 88,831 at the January 2024 tests to 97,048 by February 2025, then to 105,731 by January 2026. That equates to roughly 8,000 to 9,000 miles annually over the last two years, with no abrupt gaps. Sparse clean passes and unexplained fails imply the prior keeper kept basic test dates but occasionally neglected pre-test preparation. A physical inspection must still target age-related weaknesses invisible in a defect-free MOT. The buyer should examine suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, and inspect brake discs and calipers for corrosion or binding after prolonged low use. Structural integrity of the underside requires checking for rust, particularly around sills and subframes. Exhaust emissions components may suffer perished hangers or rot. Low mileage does not exempt a 20-year-old chassis from rubber degradation and moisture damage.
