2015 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · YG15 SCV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but exhibits a worsening trend regarding high-mileage mechanical wear and reactive maintenance. While it passed its most recent test in April 2026 at 178,388 miles, it failed just one day prior with multiple significant defects. The transition from a failed offside front wheel bearing with excessive play and a torn CV boot to a pass suggests that critical mechanical components are only being addressed once they reach a point of imminent failure rather than through a preventative service schedule. At 178,388 miles over 11 years, this Toyota Aygo covers an average of over 16,000 miles per annum, which sits significantly above the national average for a car of this age. The rapid accumulation of nearly 38,000 miles in the year between the April 2024 and April 2026 tests puts considerable strain on the drivetrain and suspension components. This high rate of use explains the frequent deterioration of rubber components, such as the anti-roll bar bushes and CV boots, seen across the last three years of records. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front-end suspension and braking assembly. The history shows recurring issues with anti-roll bar linkages, track rod ends, and wheel bearings, indicating the front geometry is fragile. The tester also flagged binding rear service brakes and thin front brake pads and discs in the latest test, suggesting the braking system is nearing the end of its effective service life. Furthermore, the presence of a distorted offside rear road wheel and worn-edge tyres should be checked for underlying alignment issues or suspension damage that often follow high-mileage operation.
