2015 Suzuki Alto 1.0L Petrol · CA64 ABZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, evidenced by a clean MOT pass on 20 June 2026 at 54,418 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a period of reactive repairs. While the car suffered from recurring failures related to suspension and consumables, the absence of advisories in the most recent test suggests that the current owner has addressed the outstanding mechanical issues identified during the mid-2020s. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 54,418 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. The usage pattern appears consistent, though there is a notable gap of over 9,000 miles between June 2025 (45,356 miles) and June 2026 (54,418 miles). Low mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components rather than wear from friction, which aligns with the persistent history of worn suspension bushes and perished dust covers seen in the record. A buyer should pay close attention to the front suspension, as the record shows a chronic issue where bushes and pins were flagged for wear between 2020 and 2023. Although the 2025 test flagged corroded rear coil springs and deteriorated anti-roll bar ball joint dust covers, a physical inspection is required to ensure these parts were replaced and that further corrosion has not progressed. The front brake discs, noted as worn in 2024, should also be checked for remaining thickness and surface pitting to ensure they were replaced recently. The history of a non-excessive oil leak dating back to 2020 warrants a look under the vehicle to confirm the leak has remained stable. Given the previous failures for wiper blades, washer fluid, and door operation, the buyer should verify that basicের items are currently well maintained. While the current record is clean, the recurring nature of these minor faults in the past suggests the vehicle may have previously sat for extended periods, which can accelerate the aging of seals and rubber components.
