2012 Chevrolet Orlando 2.0L Diesel · LS12 HBN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test in April 2025 at 100,540 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just six miles prior. This suggests that the current owner is proactive in rectifying immediate issues to ensure compliance. The lack of recurring advisories in the most recent pass indicates that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety and environmental standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,200 miles per year. Between April 2023 and April 2024, the car covered 10,020 miles, while a further 10,511 miles were recorded between April 2024 and April 2025. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and rubber components. The data shows a linear progression with no unexplained gaps or sudden spikes in the odometer reading. Despite the clean record in the latest test, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of common wear points for a 14-year-old Chevrolet. Focus on the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade significantly around the 100,000-mile mark. Since the vehicle failed tests in 2023 and 2025 without specific defects listed in the summary provided, the buyer should verify if these failures were minor mechanical items or emissions issues that were quickly addressed. Check for structural corrosion on the sills and exhaust system, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the state of surface rust between tests.
