2011 Chevrolet Lacetti 1.6L Petrol · WF11 ABZ

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2022-06-06 at 237,734 miles, recorded a pass with no defects. However, the absence of subsequent tests since 2022 raises concerns about its current roadworthiness. The MOT history shows two passes and two failures between 2020 and 2021, but neither failure listed any defects, suggesting either incomplete testing or rapid resolution of issues. This pattern indicates a stable maintenance record in the immediate past, though the four-year gap since the last test leaves critical components unverified. The vehicle’s mileage of 237,734 miles at 15 years old equates to an average of 15,849 miles annually, significantly above typical usage for its age. A notable jump from 208,445 miles (2020-11-05) to 226,157 miles (2021-11-16) suggests accelerated wear, particularly on consumables like tyres and brake pads. The lack of detailed defect reports in the MOT history limits analysis of structural or mechanical degradation, though high mileage implies increased risk to suspension bushes, coil springs, and exhaust emissions systems. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the braking system for uneven wear or binding calipers, given the high mileage, and check for corrosion in the exhaust or underbody. Suspension components, including shock absorbers and track rods, may show excessive play or wear. The absence of recent MOT data means verifying the vehicle’s current condition through a professional inspection is essential, as unresolved issues from prior tests could have resurfaced without documentation.
