About the 2014 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

The 2014 CHEVROLET CORVETTE is a performance with a 6162cc petrol engine. 85 of these vehicles were MOT tested in 2026, making it a rare model on UK roads. It sits in the bottom 93% of 2014 cars for MOT pass rates.

With an average of 27,717 miles at 12 years old, CHEVROLET CORVETTE owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.

2014 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Fuel Costs

The 6162cc petrol engine is on the larger side, so fuel won't be this car's strong point. Expect around 30 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £1,592 per year at current petrol prices of 142p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year).

What does it cost to own a 2014 CHEVROLET CORVETTE?

Total estimated annual running cost is £2,907 242/month), broken down as £1592 fuel, £760 road tax, £55 MOT, and £500 predicted repairs. Repair costs are moderate, reflecting the 74% pass rate. Keeping on top of servicing will help avoid surprises.

CHEVROLET CORVETTE Reliability Trend

Newer CHEVROLET CORVETTEs show better MOT pass rates than older ones, with an average improvement of 11 percentage points.

Buying a Used 2014 CHEVROLET CORVETTE

At 12 years old, the CHEVROLET CORVETTE is firmly in budget territory. Purchase prices are low, but check for rust, worn suspension bushes, and electrical gremlins. A full service history is especially valuable at this age. Note: with only 85 tests in our data, these figures should be treated as indicative rather than definitive.

Common Issues to Watch For

Based on the 2014 CHEVROLET CORVETTE's fuel type, age, and engine size, these are the most likely problem areas to check.

Timing Chain / Belt

Watch out

At 12 years old, check whether the timing belt has been replaced (typically due every 5-7 years or 60,000-100,000 miles). A snapped belt can destroy the engine.

Oil Consumption

Medium risk

Larger petrol engines can develop higher oil consumption as they age. Check the oil level and look for blue smoke from the exhaust.

Rust and Corrosion

Watch out

At 10+ years, check wheel arches, sills, subframe, and brake lines for rust. Structural corrosion is an MOT failure. Prevention is far cheaper than repair.

Suspension Bushings

Watch out

Rubber suspension bushes harden and crack with age, causing knocking noises and vague handling. A full refresh costs £300-£800 depending on the car.

Service History

Low risk

Always request a full service history. Regular servicing is the single best indicator of how well a car has been maintained, regardless of mileage.
