CHEVROLET VOLT2013 · 1.4L HYBRID ELECTRIC

The most recent MOT from August 2025 was passed with no defects recorded. The overall condition trend appears stable or improving, as the only recorded issues in the recent history were addressed or resolved following the 2024 inspection. The main risk pattern identified is age-related tyre degradation. During the August 2024 MOT, both rear tyres were flagged for cracking, perishing, or having cuts in the tread. This is a specific indicator of rubber ageing, which often occurs when a vehicle is not driven regularly. With roughly 67,275 miles covered over 13 years, the mileage is low for a vehicle of this age, averaging about 5,175 miles per year. While this suggests less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension, it also carries the risk of under-use. The tyre issues noted in 2024 are consistent with a vehicle that may have spent long periods standing, which can cause rubber components to perish even if the tread remains deep. When inspecting the vehicle in person, your first priority should be to check the current condition of all tyres for any signs of cracking, perishing, or sidewall damage. You should also look for other signs of age-related deterioration that can occur when a car is used infrequently.
