    I had a 107, brilliant little car . 9 years of trouble free motoring and 116,000 miles on the clock. My only gripe was the exhaust as they don't last long compared to other makes . Economical, reliable, cheapish to maintain 😊 I'd definitely buy another.

    Good informativ video.. it´s good help when looking for at cheap, but ok car....I have been looking for one of those 3 brands the last year.. unsure which one to buy, and it must be with a removable towbar, and that narrows the list very much.. here in Denmark, the 2012 / 2013 models cost in average around 3500-4500 pounds, Toyota's beeing a bit more expensive, and the few with very low mileage, cost more... I must go see the other videos now.. etc.. 🙂

    I have newer shape aygo and absolutely love it. They’re ok with rust but you have to check the suspension as rust loves it especially rear beam, and lacquer peel on mat colours. But parts are cheap like seriously cheap and I get 57mpg with my foot 68 was my record.

    I've got a platinum version, it's a super little car, not problem free, but still. With the clutch, I sometimes using third gear, that it feels as though I'm riding it, so I'm extra careful with it, but it's a bit weird. I've never had any issues with any other car of vans I've driven. I live in a rural area, so they great to go round back roads, overall, it's super to drive.

    what is normal oil consumption for this Aygo? Normally I change around 14,000 km to 15,000 according to the maintenance book. But you need to top up about 2L - 2,6L (that's a lot). Now I change the oil around 10,000-11,000 km (Engine oil Total Quartz Ineo ECS 5W-30) and I found this better than Toyota 5W30 oil. Today I replaced the PCV Valve, hoping that will reduce the use of oil

    • @PhoticSneezeOne
      @PhoticSneezeOne 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      The 1KR-FE engine used in the Aygo, 107 and C1 are prone to oilslack buildup on the piston rings, leading to reduced compression and high oil burning rates. That´s why regular oilchanges are super important on those.
      You can try a professional engine flush or soak the piston tops with detergents like injection/carburetor cleaner

One 2006 Aygo was thoroughly checked in 2019 at 307,000 kms (190,000 miles) and it was in great condition, no signs of rust or reliability issues in the future, the advice was to just keep driving it for as long as the owner could. Another Aygo went to 325,000 kms (201,000 miles) without issues.

    Hello from across the pond i see you are getting scammed too even with the brexit same gas price as in Holland lmfao . Tip before buying back hatch top site of the rubber seal pull it down to see if it started rusting already . Same goes for the door seals onlky here the bottom side is where the water stands and goes rusting . Put the handbrake on let the clutch come and see if it slips . The booth rear tire space see if it has water in it if so check the rear breaklicht seals one on the top and the two rear lights .

    Hi! Noob driver here, looking for an economical car, and the Aygo is one of them, but I have some questions about it, which can be a bit subjective. Like, how is the behaviour on the motorway, or long journeys?
    I mean, I know it's a car mainly for the city, but I'm thinking maybe I'm going to do some long trips, and some people I've talked to, told me it's an umcomfortable car, in general and especially for such tasks. I'd like to know if that's true since I haven't had the opportunity to get into one of those. Thank you.

      I had a basic Citroen C1 3 door equivalent for about 3 years and did 48k miles in that time. 70 mile daily commute on dual carriage/motor ways and frequent motorway journeys to London, Cardiff, Glasgow and Birmingham from York. It was quite nippy, kept up with traffic on the motorways ok but it had to be worked quite hard but it coped well. Being so small meant I felt a bit intimidated by larger vehicles at times and it did feel cross winds a bit. I found it comfortable enough. Plenty of room up front, less so in the back and boots small but the rear seats fold down. The ride not was the best and a bit noisy but good fun to drive on country roads. Regularly got 60mpg out of it. It did suffer a leak at the back as others have noted. Overall a great car for what it is and I came to this site as I am thinking of one for my granddaughter when she passes her test.

Food and fuel are quite expensive for our standard. Cars were cheaper before corona and the war in Ukraine. Now the prices are much higher and stagnate or go up. Newer cars are less imported, so the prices of those that are available are increasing.
