SUZUKI VITARA2017 · 1.4L PETROL

The vehicle currently presents as roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 81,848 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a period of neglected upkeep in early 2025. While the 2025 test revealed multiple defects related to tyres and brakes, the clean pass in 2026 suggests that the owner has addressed these specific safety concerns prior to the latest inspection. At 81,848 miles over nine years, the Suzuki Vitara averages approximately 9,000 miles per annum, which aligns with typical UK usage for a family vehicle. The record shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 10,000 miles covered between January 2024 and February 2025, and another 4,800 miles between February 2025 and February 2026. This steady accumulation indicates the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which helps prevent seal degradation and brake fluid contamination. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the braking system, as the 2025 test flagged worn front brake discs. Although these may have been replaced, the previous report of inner-edge wear on both front tyres suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that requires verification. The buyer should also check for uneven wear across the current tyre set. Additionally, the 2025 advisory regarding perishing rubber on all four tyres implies that the age of the rubber should be checked for cracking, regardless of remaining tread depth.
