2009 Vauxhall Agila: petrol or diesel?

Petrol, diesel and hybrid versions go wrong in different ways, so each has its own figures from the MOTs these cars had during 2023–2025. Pick the one you’re looking at: the fuel is on the logbook and in the car’s MOT history.

Petrol 56% pass first time (all 2009 cars: 59%) Stands out: rigid brake pipes 3.5×, braking performance 2.3×, front strut mounts and bushes 9× 15,318 MOTsSee the petrol guide › Diesel 54% pass first time (all 2009 cars: 59%) Stands out: rigid brake pipes 3.9×, braking performance 2.8×, front strut mounts and bushes 12× 1,209 MOTsSee the diesel guide ›

Hybrid versions had too few MOTs for figures of their own, or weren’t sold.
