SUZUKI SX42011 · 1.6L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT test on 24 February 2026 at 176,423 miles with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of successful passes in previous years, suggesting that the primary mechanical and structural components currently meet minimum legal standards. The lack of advisories on the most recent entry indicates that the vehicle is currently operating in a clean state without immediate mechanical failures or developing structural corrosion. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,700 miles per annum. Between the February 2024 test at 171,685 miles and the February 2025 test at 173,524 miles, the car covered 1,839 miles, while another 2,899 miles were clocked in the year leading to February 2026. This suggests regular but moderate use which helps prevent the degradation of components associated with long periods of inactivity. Despite the clean record in recent tests, a buyer must focus on high-mileage components that typically fail on the Suzuki SX4 at the 175,000-mile mark. Physical inspection should prioritize the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of per or degradation, as these often wear before failing an MOT. Given the age and mileage, checking the brake calipers for binding and assessing the thickness of the discs is essential, as the MOT only tests for functional efficiency rather than remaining component life.
