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 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 10,089 miles. While mileage is consistent, the sheer volume of past issues and recent advisories warrant a thorough inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,024 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the vehicle has only covered 10,089 miles in 15 years.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (Aug 2019, Aug 2023) and coil spring advisories (Aug 2020, Aug 2024) indicate chronic wear.
  • Emissions system repeatedly failed (Aug 2019, Aug 2020) and advised (Aug 2023) over multiple years.
  • Brake system failed with DANGEROUS defect (Aug 2020) and recurring advisories (Aug 2024).
  • Tyre condition has been a recurring advisory since 2015, with recent damage noted (Aug 2024).

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until August 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Mileage is consistent and low for its age, averaging 7,024 miles/year, suggesting light use.
  • No recent major failures or dangerous defects were recorded in the last two MOT tests (Aug 2024, Aug 2025).
  • The car has been consistently registered and maintained, with no gaps in its MOT history.
