2017 Suzuki Ignis SZ-T Dualjet 1.2L Petrol · FGZ 1120

This Suzuki Ignis lacks any documented MOT history, rendering a formal roadworthiness assessment impossible. Without test dates, mileage readings, or advisory notes, there is no evidence of maintenance trends—whether stable, deteriorating, or improving. The absence of records also precludes any evaluation of recurring faults or structural integrity over time. As a result, the vehicle’s current condition cannot be verified against regulatory standards, leaving critical components such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake systems unassessed for compliance or wear patterns. Mileage data is entirely absent, which complicates any analysis of usage patterns. A 2017 model should have undergone at least three MOT tests by now—one annually until May 2020, followed by biennial checks. The lack of records suggests either deliberate omission, a vehicle never legally tested, or a history of off-road or non-road use where MOTs were unnecessary. Without mileage figures, it is impossible to determine whether the car has been driven sparingly or excessively, or if it has sat unused for extended periods, which could accelerate corrosion or mechanical degradation. Given the complete absence of MOT data, a prospective buyer must treat this vehicle with extreme caution. Priority inspection should focus on structural integrity , particularly around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, where corrosion often begins silently. The suspension—including coil springs, bushes, and dampers—should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as these are common failure points in under-maintained vehicles. Brake discs and calipers must be examined for uneven thickness or glazing, while the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive rust, which could indicate past neglect. Tyre condition, though not recorded, must be verified for tread depth and lateral wear, as failing twice on tread suggests basic upkeep was likely ignored. Finally, the engine bay should be scrutinised for oil leaks, coolant contamination, or loose components, as these often precede catastrophic failures. Without prior test evidence, no component can be assumed reliable.
