2009 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · WG59 ADU

The 2009 Toyota Aygo presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2026-01-06 at 66,055 miles recording a pass and no defects. Previous tests from 2025 and 2024 also showed passes, while two failed entries in 2026 and 2024 noted no defects. This suggests the vehicle has maintained compliance without significant mechanical issues, though the absence of recorded faults in failed tests may indicate procedural anomalies or minor non-compliances. The lack of recurring defects over multiple years implies consistent maintenance, though the low mileage raises questions about usage patterns. The vehicle’s 66,055 miles at 17 years old equates to approximately 3,886 annual miles, well below the average for its age. This suggests either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers due to lack of movement. The 2024-01-04 MOT at 61,747 miles showed a pass, followed by a 2025-01-06 test at 64,927 miles, indicating a 3,180-mile increase over 12 months—a gradual rise consistent with light usage. However, the 2026-01-05 failure at 66,054 miles, just one mile short of the subsequent pass, may reflect administrative errors or minor technical oversights. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for hardened bushes or coil spring fatigue, common in low-mileage vehicles with extended inactivity. Brake components, including discs and calipers, should be checked for corrosion or binding, as infrequent use can lead to sticking. Structural integrity is likely sound given the absence of rust-related advisories, but a thorough underbody inspection is recommended to confirm. The lack of recorded defects in recent tests supports functional reliability, though the vehicle’s low mileage and sporadic MOT history warrant cautious evaluation of its mechanical condition.
