2012 Toyota Aygo 1.0L Petrol · YM12 CPX

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test conducted on 24 November 2025 at 47,471 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just five days prior at 47,466 miles. This specific failure without recorded defects suggests a potential administrative error or a minor sensor-related issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure or structural weakness. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,400 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between April 2024 (38,492 miles) and July 2025 (46,957 miles), where the car covered over 8,000 miles in fourteen months. While the low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing can lead to perished rubber-based components, corrosion on brake discs, and internal fluid degradation. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the MOT history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on age-related degradation rather than mileage-based wear. Inspect the underside for surface rust on the exhaust and suspension system, which often affects low-mileage cars stored in damp environments. Check brake calipers for seizing and the suspension bushes for cracking, as infrequent use often causes these issues. Additionally, verify the tyre sidewalls for dry rot, as the rubber likely ages out long before the tread wears down.
