2017 Suzuki Vitara 1.6L Petrol · YG17 ABV

The Suzuki Vitara presents a stable roadworthiness profile as of the most recent test on 3 November 2025 at 93,368 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. The maintenance trend is resolving and consistent, with the only blemish being a failed test on 31 October 2024 at 78,692 miles that the DVSA log shows with no defects recorded, followed four days later by a clean pass at 78,722 miles. This suggests an administrative or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than a serious fault, and the vehicle has since cleared two successive annual tests without advisories. The mileage pattern aligns with typical use for a 2017 registration. The car covered roughly 14,831 miles between the February 2023 test at 57,861 miles and the November 2023 test at 63,891 miles, then 14,831 miles again to the October 2024 failure at 78,692 miles, and a further 14,646 miles to the 2025 pass at 93,368 miles. Annual accumulation sits near the 10,374-mile average for its age. The record is sparse but clean, showing no recurring consumable neglect such as tyre tread or wiper wear, and no standing-period corrosion flags. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle is now nine years old. Although no advisories list worn suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding calipers, the 2024 failure with no recorded defect warrants confirmation that no hidden brake disc or exhaust emissions issue was quietly rectified between tests. Given the absence of flagged mechanical or structural risks across five tests, the Vitara reflects disciplined upkeep by prior owners. Verify service history matches the odometer jumps and check for intermittent electrical faults not captured by MOT scope before purchase.
