2017 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · LS67 MDX

The Toyota Aygo’s most recent MOT test on 2025-12-02 confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded at 51,471 miles. Over the past five consecutive tests—all passing without fail—the vehicle has demonstrated a stable maintenance trend, free from recurring advisories or major mechanical issues. The absence of any advisories in the latest test suggests the tester did not identify any hidden concerns, though this does not preclude wear that falls below MOT thresholds. Buyers should treat this as a clean record but recognise that MOTs only test for visible or functional failures, not gradual degradation. The mileage progression reveals unusually low annual usage, averaging just 5,719 miles per year since 2021. This pattern is notable for its consistency: the vehicle accrued 21,909 miles between 2021 and 2022, then 5,152 miles in the following year, and another 5,054 miles by 2024. Such low mileage could indicate prolonged periods of inactivity, which may have mitigated some wear but could also mean components like suspension bushes or coil springs have dried out or degraded due to lack of movement. The gap between tests—always exactly one year—suggests the vehicle was likely stored or driven infrequently during off-seasons. Given the lack of advisories, the most critical in-person inspections should focus on suspension integrity, particularly the condition of rear suspension bushes and coil springs, which may have suffered from static loading. The brakes, while not flagged in tests, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Tyres, though not mentioned in the record, warrant immediate scrutiny for uneven tread wear or embedded debris, as low-mileage vehicles often develop flat spots or internal damage from prolonged storage. Finally, inspect the underbody for corrosion around wheel arches and sills, as rust can accelerate if the vehicle was exposed to moisture without regular movement.
