2015 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · LR65 OJG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 2026-03-31 with no recorded defects at 106,893 miles. This clean pass follows a failed test just two weeks earlier in March 2025, which cited significant brake and tyre wear issues. The fact that all those faults were rectified and the car subsequently passed—twice, including the latest test—suggests an improving maintenance trend, likely due to necessary repairs being carried out after the failure. Mileage accumulation shows a notable spike between March 2025 and March 2026: the odometer rose from 88,798 to 106,893 miles—a jump of 18,095 miles in one year, nearly double the vehicle’s historical average of around 9,700 miles annually. Prior to that, usage was consistent, with roughly 5,000–14,000 miles added each year since 2023. This recent surge may indicate a change in ownership or usage pattern, potentially accelerating wear on high-use components despite the current clean MOT status. Given the history, a prospective buyer should pay close attention to the braking system. Both front brake pads and discs were worn beyond acceptable limits in early 2025, and while they’ve since been replaced or repaired, high mileage since then means they could again be approaching replacement thresholds. Tyre condition also warrants scrutiny—the fronts showed edge wear close to the legal limit in both 2025 tests, suggesting possible alignment or suspension issues. Inspect for uneven tread wear, play in steering components, or worn suspension bushes, especially given the Aygo’s age and elevated recent mileage. Structural integrity appears sound based on MOT records, as no corrosion-related advisories or failures were logged. However, the offside rear tyre showed signs of perishing in late 2023, hinting at potential long-term static storage or exposure to harsh conditions earlier in its life. A thorough inspection of all tyres, brake components, and suspension geometry is advisable before purchase, even though the car currently holds a valid pass.
