2013 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · SO62 FDV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 23 September 2025 at 53,249 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the initial failure on that same day indicates a lapse in pre-test preparation. The defects related to an ineffective windscreen wiper and reduced light intensity on both front indicators were rectified immediately to achieve the pass, suggesting that the owner is responsive to MOT requirements once faults are identified. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 53,249 miles represents a low average of approximately 4,100 miles per year. This low usage pattern is consistent across the records, with only 1,738 miles covered between the October 2024 and September 2025 tests. Such figures suggest light city driving. While low mileage often reduces mechanical wear on the engine and suspension components, it can occasionally lead to age-related degradation of rubber seals and fluid components if the car sits stationary for extended periods between trips. A buyer should pay attention to the braking system, specifically regarding the offside rear service brake binding noted in October 2024 at 51,511 miles. Although this was described as not excessive, binding calipers often stem from seized pistons or corrosion on slider pins in low-use vehicles. An inspection should ensure the caliper is moving freely now and that the discs are not unevenly worn. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical check for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is also advisable, as these areas were not flagged in the recent history but remain susceptible to rust on this model.
