AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2011 Chevrolet has 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 18,795 miles. While recent failures were addressed, the underlying issues and age warrant careful consideration.

The vehicle exhibits very low annual usage, averaging only 4,207 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 2,457 miles between Feb 2022 and Feb 2023).

Things to check

  • Recurring brake system failures and advisories across multiple tests (e.g., Feb 2022, Feb 2024, Jan 2026).
  • Very low annual mileage (4,207 miles/yr) for a 15-year-old vehicle, suggesting long periods of inactivity.
  • Multiple brake-related failures (Feb 2022, Feb 2024, Jan 2026) and numerous advisories (e.g., Feb 2020, Feb 2022) indicate systemic issues.
  • Exhaust system advisories in Feb 2024 and Feb 2026 suggest ongoing wear and potential future costs.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until February 2027, offering immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering, as readings are consistent and plausible.
  • All major failures (brakes, lights) were promptly rectified and passed retests, demonstrating responsive ownership.
  • The vehicle has consistently passed its MOTs since 2015, showing it meets current safety standards.
