2021 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · YL70 ATU

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of neglected consumables due to low usage. The most recent test in April 2026 at 12,991 miles shows a pass despite advisories for all four tyres showing signs of cracking and perishing. This issue has appeared on every annual MOT record back to at least 2024, indicating that the rubber compound is degrading from age rather than tread wear. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,600 miles per year. Between the 2024 test at 8,376 miles and the 2025 test at 11,265 miles, the car covered only 2,889 miles in twelve months. While low mileage suggests minimal strain on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between use often lead to the deterioration of rubber components and fluid breakdown, which aligns with the consistent tyre failures noted in the record. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the condition of the tyres, as the recurring perishing suggests they are nearing the end of their structural life despite having sufficient depth. The record noted a worn front anti-roll bar linkage pin or bush in May 2024 at 8,376 miles; a physical inspection is required to ensure this component has not developed excessive play since then. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also check for brake disc surface corrosion or seized calipers, which frequently affect vehicles that sit stationary for long periods.
