2009 Chevrolet Matiz 0.8L Petrol · MF59 UBD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive service pattern rather than proactive care. While the most recent test in September 2025 at 33,279 miles resulted in a pass, it followed a failure just one week prior. The mechanical trend shows that the owner only addresses defects once they are flagged by a tester, as evidenced by the immediate rectification of the wipers and headlamp aim between the two 2025 tests. With only 33,279 miles over 17 years, this car has travelled very little, averaging roughly 2,000 miles per annum. The data shows consistent low-usage patterns, with 2,348 miles covered between October 2023 and September 2024, and another 2,268 miles covered in the following year. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often increases the risk of rubber component degradation and brake corrosion due to inactivity, which appears to align with the issues noted in the record. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the braking system and suspension. The September 2024 failure for insufficient brake pedal travel and thin pads indicates that the brakes were run to a critical limit. Furthermore, the 2025 advisories regarding worn bushes on both rear upper shock absorbers suggest the suspension components are beginning to perish. Given the age of the vehicle and the uneven wear noted on the front inner tyres, the buyer should also check for alignment issues or hidden structural rust that often affects long-standing city vehicles.
