2012 Chevrolet Volt Electric · LF12 AAV

The Chevrolet Volt presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent DVSA test on 2 December 2025 at 110,484 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Three consecutive annual passes from December 2023 through December 2025, at 99,945, 106,234 and 110,484 miles respectively, show no advisories or escalating faults. The vehicle's mechanical condition appears consistent and well maintained across this period. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,892 miles per year against the car's 2012 build, a typical figure for a 14 year old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 97,038 miles in September 2022 rising to 110,484 by December 2025, an average of around 4,500 miles annually across the recorded window. A minor anomaly appears in late 2022 where the tester logged a fail on 1 September at 97,035 miles with no defects cited, followed by a pass on 27 September at 97,038 miles, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue at the first attempt rather than a genuine mechanical fault. Given the clean test history with no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion or exhaust emissions concerns, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and hybrid drivetrain components. The absence of advisories across four years does not exempt the car from age related degradation of consumables such as tyres, wiper blades and brake fluid that fall outside MOT scope. The previous owner demonstrably kept the Volt to a standard that cleared every meaningful test without recurring defects. A pre purchase check should nonetheless confirm underbody condition and battery cooling system service, as the MOT record alone cannot verify hybrid specific maintenance.
