2010 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · SM10 OFC

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following a successful MOT test on 12 March 2026 at 69,359 miles. This result followed a failure just one month prior on 13 February 2026 at 68,965 miles, though the record shows no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a minor non-mechanical compliance issue such as a blown bulb or a sensor fault that was immediately rectified. Since 2023, the car has consistently passed inspections without recorded advisories or failures, indicating a consistent level of mechanical upkeep over the recent years. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,335 miles per year. Between May 2023 and May 2024, the car covered 3,314 miles, while the interval between the two most recent tests saw only 1,584 miles. This low usage generally reduces the mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but the long intervals between tests and periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components. The lack of significant mileage suggests the vehicle has been used primarily for short trips rather than long-distance commuting. Because the MOT history is clean of recurring mechanical faults, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than mileage-based wear. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracking and coil springs for corrosion, as these perish over time regardless of distance driven. The buyer should also check the brake discs for surface pitting and seized calipers, as low-frequency use often leads to components sticking. Additionally, examine the chassis and underbody sills for structural rust which often develops when vehicles remain stationary for extended periods.
