2010 Chevrolet Spark 1.2L Petrol · WR10 AEE

The 2010 Chevrolet Spark presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 June 2024 at 87,184 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual examinations in June 2023 and April 2022 also passed cleanly. The only blemish is a failed test on 9 June 2023 at 83,455 miles, reversed by a pass five days later at 83,530 miles with no defects listed on either certificate, which suggests an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a substantive fault. Recorded mileage sits at 87,184 against a 16-year lifespan, averaging roughly 5,449 miles per year. The car covered 4,876 miles between April 2021 and April 2022, then 5,876 miles to June 2023, and 3,654 miles to June 2024, showing consistent low annual use with no abrupt accumulation. A 14-month gap separates the April 2022 test from the June 2023 retest, but the low overall distance and clean advisories indicate the vehicle was lightly used and not neglected through high wear. The sparse MOT history flags no recurring suspension bushes, coil spring, brake disc, or corrosion issues across the examined period. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody for hidden rust, given the car's age and the possibility of long stationary periods implied by low mileage. Verify the brake calipers are free and the exhaust emissions remain within limits, as these items escape MOT capture when not actively failing. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory testing discipline, with the lone 2023 failure quickly corrected. The absent advisories across five tests imply consumable wear such as tyres and wiper blades was addressed before each examination. Treat the clean record as a positive but not a substitute for a independent mechanical appraisal before purchase.
