2015 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · VO15 FBY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals an inconsistent trend of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in January 2026 at 28,442 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for a non-functional windscreen washer and a damaged offside front tyre. This follows a significant failure in December 2024 where the vehicle presented multiple critical faults, including an inoperative engine management light and an electronic stability control failure. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 28,442 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,586 miles per year. This low usage profile often leads to age-related degradation rather than mechanical wear from distance. The data shows a notable gap between March 2023 and December 2024, where the car covered only 820 miles in nearly twenty months. Such long periods of standing frequently cause issues with rubber-based components, evidenced by the advisories for cracking and perishing tyres in the March 2023 test. A buyer must personally inspect the electronic system to ensure the faults with the electronic stability control and the engine management light have been properly rectified and not merely cleared with a code. The recurring presence of tyre damage and cuts across multiple tests suggests the owner ignores minor defects until an MOT failure forces action. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection should also check for seized brake calipers, perished suspension bushes, and fluid degradation, as these are common symptoms in vehicles that remain stationary for extended periods.
