2011 Vauxhall Agila 1.0L Petrol · YP11 ACO

The vehicle shows a history of inconsistent maintenance, though the most recent test in May 2022 suggests a period of stability. The record indicates a pattern of reactive repairs rather than proactive maintenance, with several failures occurring due to preventable wear. While the vehicle passed its last recorded test at 128,911 miles with no defects, the four-year gap between that entry and the current date of July 2026 suggests the MOT status is significantly out of date. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,600 miles per year. The data shows steady progress from 32,463 miles in April 2014 to 128,911 miles in May 2022. There are no obvious signs of long-term abandonment or sudden, excessive mileage spikes, which implies the car has been used for regular, moderate commuting throughout its life. A buyer must pay close attention to the suspension and exhaust systems. The tester flagged broken or fractured coil springs in 2015, 2019, and again in May 2022, indicating a recurring issue with suspension component longevity or road condition impacts. The exhaust system has also shown a persistent trend of minor gas leaks from 2017 through 2019. These recurring faults suggest that while the car is being repaired to pass inspections, the underlying causes of component fatigue may not be fully addressed. Tyre management and braking components also require a thorough physical inspection. The records show frequent failures for tyres being worn close to the legal limit or having exposed cords, specifically in 2021 and 2022. Similarly, brake pads were flagged as thinning in 2014 and 2019. Given the age of the vehicle and the history of consumable wear, a buyer should check for uneven tyre wear, which could indicate geometry issues, and verify the remaining life of the brake discs and pads.
