2011 Chevrolet Aveo 1.2L Petrol · BT11 KFK

The most recent MOT on 2026-03-03 recorded a single defect: "Offside Front Suspension arm pin or bush worn but not resulting in excessive movement rear bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))". This indicates a minor suspension component issue that does not currently compromise safety but may require monitoring. No other defects were noted in this test, and the vehicle passed. Prior MOTs from 2022 to 2024 show no recorded defects, suggesting a period of stable mechanical condition. The 2025-01-28 test also reported no issues, reinforcing that the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards for several years. The only recent defect is isolated to a specific suspension component, with no evidence of recurring or escalating problems. The vehicle’s mileage of 10,080 miles over 15 years equates to roughly 672 miles per year, which is unusually low. This could reflect light usage, long periods of inactivity, or infrequent driving. Low mileage may reduce wear on consumables like brakes and tyres but could also lead to issues such as corrosion, fluid degradation, or seized components if the vehicle has not been regularly driven. The lack of recent defects does not confirm active use, so this remains an uncertainty.
