2012 Chevrolet Cruze 1.6L Petrol · LS12 FSN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT in February 2026 at 44,479 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable pattern of minor defects, with the most recent test identifying only a slightly damaged seat belt buckle. While the car failed its test in February 2023 due to a headlamp failure and tyre issues, the subsequent passes indicate that the owner addressed the primary mechanical and safety concerns raised during that period. At 14 years old, the Chevrolet Cruze has exceptionally low annual mileage, averaging approximately 3,177 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-usage patterns, with only 1,822 miles covered between March 2024 and March 2025, and another 1,379 miles between March 2025 and February 2026. This low usage often preserves drivetrain components but suggests the vehicle is susceptible to age-related degradation rather than mileage-related wear. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres, as the March 2025 test flagged both rear tyres for being perished or worn to the legal limit. Low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from dry rubber components and seized braking parts due to inactivity. You must check the handbrake mechanism for excessive travel, which was noted in 2025, and inspect the undercarriage for corrosion, as rust is a common risk for vehicles of this age regardless of the low distance driven.
