2018 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · YA18 AGU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed the April 2026 MOT at 27,243 miles. The test recorded several advisories: the front driver’s view items were removed, the near‑side front tyre showed slight damage/cracking, and both front suspension arm pins/bushes were worn without excessive movement. No failures were flagged, indicating the car meets the minimum standards for the road, but the wear items suggest routine maintenance is required to preserve long‑term reliability. Mileage accumulation has been modest for an eight‑year‑old car, averaging roughly 3,400 miles per year. The first entry in 2022 recorded 15,738 miles, rising to 18,731 miles by April 2023 (+3,000 miles). The 2024 test at 22,159 miles added another 3,428 miles, while the 2025 failure at 24,406 miles introduced a 2,247‑mile increment. The subsequent April 2026 test added 2,837 miles to reach 27,243 miles. The steady, low‑rate increase points to light usage or periods of storage, which is favourable for component longevity. A prospective buyer should inspect the tyres closely, particularly the near‑side front tyre noted as slightly damaged and the rear tyre that previously suffered a deep cut. The front suspension arm bushes should be examined for wear and excessive play, as the MOT indicated deterioration on both sides. The parking brake’s efficiency must be verified, given the 2025 failure, and the wiper blades should be checked for effective clearance. Finally, a visual check of the brake discs and calipers for corrosion or uneven wear, together with an assessment of any rust or structural corrosion on the chassis, will provide a complete picture of the car’s mechanical condition.
