2012 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · PX62 XOM

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a shift towards developing mechanical component wear. The most recent test in October 2025 at 126,971 miles passed despite advisories for a perished offside rear tyre and worn anti-roll bar linkages. While the car remains legally compliant, the appearance of suspension wear indicates that components are beginning to reach the end of their service life, requiring proactive attention to prevent future failures. At 126,971 miles over fourteen years, the Aygo averages approximately 9,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical annual usage for a city-oriented vehicle. The record shows consistent use, with 12,000 miles covered between September 2022 and September 2023, and another 7,000 miles between late 2023 and 2024. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for extended periods, which generally benefits the condition of rubberized components and brake seals. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension assembly, as both anti-roll bar linkages were flagged for worn bushes in the 2025 test. These components often cause knocking noises over uneven surfaces if left untreated. The recurring issue with the cracked offside rear tyre, noted in both 2024 and 2025, suggests a pattern of neglecting minor age-related degradation rather than tread depth issues. Verification of the headlamp alignment is also advised to ensure the 2024 failure was properly rectified and has not drifted out of adjustment.
