2016 Suzuki Vitara 1.6L Petrol · DS16 AAJ

This Suzuki Vitara presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 14 May 2025 at 50,606 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and remains in good mechanical health. The mileage is notably low for a ten year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,061 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady over the last few years, growing from 21,368 miles in May 2022 to 50,606 miles by May 2025. This suggests regular, light use rather than long periods of standing, which typically reduces the risk of seized calipers or perished rubber components. The MOT history is exceptionally clean, with no recorded failures for mechanical wear, corrosion, or emissions. A failure on 11 May 2024 was resolved on the same day at 40,197 miles, though the record lists no specific defects for that entry. This indicates a minor administrative or quick-fix issue rather than a systemic mechanical failure. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that do not always surface in MOT tests. Given the low mileage and lack of reported wear, check for tyre age and perishing rather than tread depth. Inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and ensure the suspension bushes remain supple, as low-use vehicles can occasionally suffer from rubber degradation despite a clean test history.
