SUZUKI WAGON-R+2000 · 1.3L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a persistent trend of escalating corrosion-related issues. While the most recent test on 6 May 2026 at 61,752 miles resulted in a pass after a failure for a blown position lamp, several mechanical advisories remain unaddressed from previous years. The recurring presence of corroded brake pipes and suspension arms across multiple testing dates indicates that while components are not yet failing structurally, the vehicle is undergoing significant degradation due to age rather than use. At 26 years old, the recorded mileage of 61,752 miles is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 2,375 miles per year. However, there is a notable gap in data between December 2024 and May 2026, where the vehicle covered over 12,000 miles in just seventeen months. This low-use pattern likely contributes to the levels of pitting on the brake discs and corrosion on the coil springs, as vehicles that sit for long periods are more susceptible to oxidation and seizing than high-mileage counterparts. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the structural integrity and the braking system. The tester has consistently flagged corroded rear brake pipes and front suspension arms since January 2024, suggesting the metal is thinning and may soon require a structural test. Particular attention is needed for the front coil springs and anti-roll bar bushes, which were noted as corroded or perished in earlier tests. Given the history of pitting on the brake discs, the hydraulic system should be checked for leaks or binding calipers to ensure the corrosion on the pipes has not compromised the braking performance.
