SUZUKI WAGON-R+2007 · 1.2L Petrol

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 30 March 2026 with 45,551 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has recorded no defects in the last three tests. While the history shows two failures in 2024 and 2025, these were rectified immediately before subsequent passes, indicating that the previous owner was willing to address identified faults to keep the vehicle compliant with road safety standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,397 miles per year. Between May 2024 and April 2025, the car covered 4,446 miles, which represents a period of very short-distance trips or long periods of inactivity. This low annual mileage generally suggests less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but it also increases risks related to the aging of rubber-based parts such as seals, hoses, and tyres which can dry out and crack due to age rather than use. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as low-mileage older vehicles are prone to hidden corrosion that MOT testing might not catch until it becomes structural. Given the intermittent usage pattern, check the brake system for rust on the discs or seized calipers which often occur when vehicles sit stationary for long periods. Additionally inspect the suspension bushes and tyres for perished rubber, as these components degrade through time regardless of the low mileage recorded on the odometer.
