2009 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · WR59 ABU

The Toyota Aygo passed its most recent MOT on 21 December 2023 at 72,176 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy on paper as of that test. The maintenance trend shows a clean and stable history apart from two anomalous failures in late 2023 that carried no recorded defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical deterioration. Recorded mileage is low for a 2009 vehicle, totalling 72,176 miles or roughly 4,246 miles per year. The gap between the 5 October 2021 test at 55,762 miles and the 27 October 2022 test at 63,666 miles shows about 7,900 miles added in one year, then only 8,510 miles across the following fourteen months to the December 2023 pass. The sparse record contains no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any stage. The two failures on 17 November 2023 at 72,129 miles and 1 December 2023 at 72,175 miles with zero defects logged are irregular. A buyer should verify with the selling garage whether these were retest admin errors, abandoned tests, or undocumented rectifications, since DVSA systems normally cite a reason for failure. Given the clean pass sheet and low annual use, the Aygo likely suffered only light wear to consumables. Inspect in person for standing-related issues: perished rubber components, flat-spotted tyres, and mild structural rust on sills or subframes that a no-defect test may overlook on a 17-year-old car.
