2013 Chevrolet Spark 1.0L Petrol · SN13 WMF

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status despite evidence of recent testing volatility. The most recent inspection on 16 December 2025 at 52,133 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure exactly one day prior. This suggests the owner is proactive in addressing immediate non-compliance to ensure legal operation. The trend indicates that the vehicle is being maintained to a standard that meets minimum regulatory testing requirements. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,010 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between the January 2024 test at 50,735 miles and the January 2025 test at 51,684 miles, representing a mere 949 miles driven in a full year. This low usage suggests short-distance trips or long periods of remaining stationary. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid breakdown due to lack of thermal cycling. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to low-mileage neglect and age. Because the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, the primary risks lie in dry rot, perished suspension bushings, and seized brake calipers. Inspect the brake discs for signs of pitting or scoring, as infrequent use often causes surface rust to become uneven. Additionally, check the tyre sidewalls for microcracking, as the age of the rubber compromises integrity regardless of the remaining tread depth.
