2014 Suzuki Alto 1.0L Petrol · AO14 AEP

The 2014 Suzuki Alto presents a generally stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2026-03-06 confirming compliance at 116,385 miles. Two entries on the same date show conflicting outcomes—passed and failed—without recorded defects, suggesting potential data inconsistency or a minor unresolved issue. Previous tests from 2025-03-11 and 2024-03-04 also showed no defects, indicating consistent maintenance. However, the lack of detailed failure reasons for the 2026 test leaves uncertainty about underlying concerns. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging ~9,700 miles annually. The 2024-03-04 test at 93,312 miles was followed by a 2025-03-11 test at 104,571 miles, reflecting steady annual growth. No significant gaps or spikes in mileage suggest regular operation, though the 2026 test’s repeated failure entry at 116,382 miles—just 3 miles prior—raises questions about procedural accuracy. The absence of defects in passing tests implies no critical systemic issues, but the lack of detailed records limits definitive assessment. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension, brakes, and exhaust system, as these components often degrade over time. While no corrosion or structural faults are noted, the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant scrutiny of coil springs, suspension bushes, and brake disc wear. The 2026 test’s unresolved failure also necessitates verifying that all issues were addressed before purchase. Overall, the car appears mechanically sound but requires a pre-purchase inspection to confirm the absence of hidden faults.
