AI verdict AVOID 32/100

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

This 2006 Chevrolet has 22 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 14,891 miles. The extremely low mileage of 14,891 miles over 20 years, combined with recurring faults, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low usage, averaging only 2,703 miles per year, with a suspiciously low 167 miles recorded before Aug 2020, indicating potential odometer fraud or long periods of inactivity.

Things to check

  • Extremely low mileage of 14,891 miles over 20 years (Jan 2006 to Aug 2025) — highly suspicious.
  • 5 major failures across critical systems (bodywork, suspension, lights, fuel system) — indicates severe neglect.
  • 21 advisories on the same components (tyres, engine oil, subframe) — consistent, unaddressed wear.
  • Recurring headlamp failures (Aug 2022 MINOR, Aug 2025 MAJOR) — escalating safety issue.

Working in its favour

  • Current valid MOT until August 2026 — vehicle is roadworthy for now.
  • No recent MOT failures (last failure Aug 2025) — issues are historical, not immediate.
  • Consistent retest passes (e.g., Aug 2020, Aug 2022) — owner addressed failures promptly.
  • No mileage anomalies since Aug 2020 — recent usage appears consistent.
