2003 Vauxhall Agila 1.2L Petrol · YC53 FYZ

The vehicle emerged from its most recent MOT on 4 July 2025 with a Pass, indicating it met the statutory roadworthiness criteria at that time. The record shows alternating outcomes – a Pass in July 2025, a Pass in August 2024, a Fail in August 2024, a Pass in August 2023 and a Fail in July 2023 – suggesting a generally stable condition punctuated by isolated failures rather than a clear deterioration or improvement trend. Mileage data is not supplied, so the mileage‑to‑age relationship cannot be evaluated. The absence of recorded kilometres prevents any assessment of whether the car has accumulated unusually high mileage for its 23‑year age or whether there are large gaps between tests that might conceal periods of intensive use. Both failures occurred without any specific defects listed, which limits insight into the underlying causes. Nevertheless, a prudent buyer should give close attention to the brake system, suspension components such as bushings and coil springs, and any signs of corrosion on the chassis or exhaust system, as these areas are common sources of MOT failures. A thorough visual inspection for rust, a functional test of the brakes for binding or uneven wear, and a check of suspension movement will help verify that the vehicle’s mechanical health aligns with the recent Pass result.
