2017 Suzuki Ignis 1.2L Hybrid electric (clean) · HD17 AEL

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT following a clean pass on 26 June 2026 at 74,258 miles. This follows a period of significant mechanical attention required in late 2025. The maintenance trend shows a recent improvement, as the defects flagged during the failed test on 03 October 2025 were successfully rectified before the subsequent pass. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 8,251 miles per year, moving from 41,757 miles in October 2020 to 74,258 miles in June 2026. This steady progression suggests regular use rather than long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate certain types of age-related degradation. The 2025 MOT record indicates a notable period of wear across the front and rear suspension components. The tester identified corroded rear coil springs and deteriorated dust covers on both the track rod ends and the front suspension arm ball joints. While these issues were cleared for the 2026 test, a buyer should inspect the condition of the rubber boots and joints to ensure no new perishing or leaks have occurred. Previous records also highlight minor consumable issues, such as the binding offside front service brake noted in October 2021 and various tyre and wiper blade defects. Given the history of suspension component deterioration and corrosion, a physical inspection of the underbody and the integrity of the steering linkages is advisable to confirm the effectiveness of the recent repairs.
