2016 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · WM65 HFD

The 2026‑01‑07 MOT at 35,050 miles recorded a clean pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the required roadworthiness standards. The consecutive passes in 2025 and 2026, together with the earlier 2024 and 2023 tests, show a stable maintenance record; no new faults have emerged since the 2024 inspection. The mileage trajectory reflects a low annual average of about 3,500 miles for a ten‑year‑old Aygo, yet the recorded increments reveal periods of accelerated use: from 15,241 miles in January 2023 to 23,292 miles in January 2024 (8,051 miles in one year), followed by 6,192 miles to the 2025 test and 5,566 miles to the 2026 test. The data are otherwise clean, with no extended gaps between tests. Recurring brake wear is evident: the 2025 failure noted near‑ and off‑side front pads below 1.5 mm and worn discs, a condition repeated in the 2024 test where pads were described as ‘wearing thin’ and discs ‘worn but not excessively’. The 2023 test recorded tyres approaching the legal limit and showing edge wear. These patterns suggest that previous owners have allowed consumable items to reach the limit without timely replacement, a risk that may affect braking performance and tyre grip. A buyer should therefore inspect the condition of the front brake pads and discs for thickness, check for binding calipers or uneven wear, examine suspension bushes and coil springs for corrosion or looseness, verify the structural integrity of the chassis for rust, and assess tyre tread depth and sidewall condition. The recent MOT confirms no immediate defects, but the documented history warrants a close‑up visual and functional check of these components before purchase.
