Our Verdict
The 2012 Toyota Aygo offers good value for money but requires careful inspection of brake components and lighting systems. Its low mileage and recent MOT pass make it a viable option for budget buyers.
Prioritise checking the brake discs for further wear and ensure the offside rear fog lamp is repaired. Verify service history for regular maintenance, as brake disc issues may indicate neglected servicing. Negotiate price based on the recent MOT failure and potential repair costs. Be cautious of tyre condition given the 2023 report of a near-limit tyre.
The 998cc petrol engine offers decent fuel economy (around 55-60 mpg) for city driving. As a 2012 model, it falls in the £12.50-£15.50 annual road tax band. Insurance groups for small cars are typically low (Group 1-3), though exact rates depend on driver profile. Brake disc replacements could cost £150-£250 per axle, with tyres adding £50-£80 per unit. Estimated annual running costs: £800-£1,000.
Inspect brake discs for uneven wear or thinning, particularly on the nearside and offside fronts. Check the offside rear fog lamp circuit for electrical faults. Examine tyres for irregular wear patterns and ensure tread depth meets legal requirements. Verify suspension components for unusual noises or play, as brake issues may indicate broader mechanical neglect.
This 2012 Toyota Aygo has a clean MOT record in the last 12 months but shows recurring brake disc wear and a recent rear fog lamp failure. With 30,816 miles (below average for its age), it presents a reasonable proposition for a low-cost city car, though maintenance risks exist.
No aggregate data available for Toyota Aygo, but Toyota's reputation for reliability suggests this vehicle may perform well with proper maintenance.
