This 2009 Chevrolet has 23 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 20,453 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage for its age (4,207 miles/year) is a significant red flag for potential long-term neglect.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 4,207 miles/year, averaging only 20,453 miles over 17 years, which is a major concern for a 2009 car.

Things to check

  • MOT history shows 7 failures and 4 recurring major defects (exhaust, suspension, steering).
  • Extremely low annual mileage (4,207 miles/year) for a 2009 vehicle is a major red flag.
  • Recurring exhaust advisories (Sep 2018, Aug 2020, Sep 2023, Sep 2025) indicate chronic issues.
  • Recurring suspension advisories (Aug 2020, Sep 2023, Aug 2024, Aug 2025) suggest ongoing wear.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate until 2026-09-07.

  • The car has consistently passed retests after failures, indicating issues were addressed.
