2012 Vauxhall Agila 1.2L Petrol · ST62 DZH

The vehicle holds a valid MOT certificate following a pass on 17 October 2025 at 44,070 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the most recent inspection recorded no defects, effectively clearing the advisories that persisted in previous years. While the record shows a consistent history of passes, the recurring suspension warnings from 2021 through 2024 indicate that these components were monitored over several cycles rather than being addressed immediately. The recorded mileage of 44,070 over a 14-year period averages approximately 3,148 miles annually. This low usage rate suggests the vehicle experienced long periods of inactivity or short-distance travel. Low-mileage vehicles of this age often suffer from seized brake components, perished rubber bushes, or internal corrosion due to infrequent operation, which may not always be captured during a standard MOT test. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the front suspension geometry and steering linkage. Although the 2025 test was clear, the history of worn lower suspension arm bushes and steering rack play suggests these areas are prone to accelerated wear on this chassis. Verify the condition of the rubber gaiters and bushings for signs of cracking or perishing, as these components often deteriorate with age regardless of the low mileage. Check for uneven tyre wear, which would confirm if the previously flagged suspension issues have been properly rectified or if they remain latent.
