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

This 2008 Chevrolet has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 20,056 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with a 2021 expiry date, which is a major red flag.

The vehicle shows normal usage with 20,056 miles over 18 years, averaging 6,449 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000.

Things to check

  • Dangerous brake failure on 2011-10-04 (tyres) and 2013-12-18 (brakes).
  • Recurring Offside Front Wheel bearing advisory on 2011-10-04 and 2013-12-18.
  • MOT currently 'Not valid' with expiry 2021-03-02, indicating a significant lapse in roadworthiness checks.
  • First registration in 2008 with no valid MOT since 2021, posing a major safety risk.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,449 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since the 2013-12-18 test.
  • The 2011-10-04 failure was immediately rectified and passed on the same day.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or suspicious mileage readings.
