2017 Suzuki Celerio 1.0L Petrol · ET17 AAK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT on 18 March 2026 at 51,187 miles. While the maintenance trend shows a period of instability with two consecutive failures in the early months of 2026, the owner clearly addressed the necessary repairs to achieve compliance within a week. The absence of defects on the most recent certificate indicates that the immediate mechanical or safety issues previously causing failures have been rectified, suggesting a currently stable state. The mileage pattern remains consistently low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per year. Between March 2025 and March 2026, the car covered 7,603 miles, moving from 43,584 miles to 51,187 miles. This low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the short-distance nature of such long periods can sometimes lead to surface corrosion on brake discs or the degradation of rubber-based suspension components due to lack of movement. A buyer should focus their inspection on the areas that triggered the failures in 2025 and 2026, although the provided data does not explicitly list the specific defect codes. Given the repeated failures in March 2026, it is vital to verify that the repairs were not temporary, specifically regarding suspension bushes, exhaust, or lighting components. The low mileage relative to the age also warrants a close check for sidewall cracking on tyres and perished wiper blades, as these components often age faster than they wear out on vehicles driven infrequently.
