2007 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · LR57 NPY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean pass in December 2025 at 79,185 miles. While the most recent test resulted in a failure due to multiple lighting issues, including position, stop, and registration plate lamps, these were simple reactive repairs resolved before the re-test. The maintenance trend suggests an owner who addresses issues only upon failing an MOT. There is a persistent pattern of neglecting basic consumable items which indicates a lack of proactive care beyond the annual inspection requirements. At 19 years old, the recorded mileage of 79,185 miles is notably low, averaging approximately 4,168 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between July 2022 and January 2024, where the vehicle covered only 2,667 miles in 18 months. Conversely, the car saw 12,866 miles in the twelve months between December 2024 and December 2025. This erratic, low-mileage pattern often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals despite the low overall mechanical wear on the drivetrain. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and tyres, as the history shows recurring issues with uneven wear and component perish. The tester flagged anti-roll bar ball joint dust covers and linkage bushes in 2024 and 2017, suggesting the front suspension geometry is prone to accelerated wear. Multiple failures for inner tyre wear and distorted road wheels between 2020, 2022, and 2024 indicate potential alignment issues or worn shocks that require attention. Additionally, the front brake discs were noted as pitted and scored in 2017; these should be checked for excessive corrosion or thinning given the vehicle's long periods of standing.
