2016 Suzuki UK 110 NE L6 0.1L Petrol · AV66 GAU

A period of significant mechanical volatility in late 2024 is the defining feature of this vehicle's history, characterized by a series of failures within a single week involving dangerous braking and lighting defects. These issues included a stop lamp that remained illuminated and excessively binding front brakes with worn discs, though the record has since stabilised, culminating in a clean pass on 12 December 2025 with no defects recorded. The recorded mileage of 44,453 miles is low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 4,445 miles per year. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary or has been used for short-distance trips, which can impact the wear characteristics of braking components and tyres differently than high-mileage motorway use. Given the previous failures for binding front brakes and worn brake discs, a test drive should focus on the smoothness of the braking system. Listen for any unusual grinding or squealing and feel for any pedal judder or a lack of linear deceleration. Ensure the vehicle does not pull to one side under braking, which would indicate uneven caliper pressure or residual binding issues. Attention should be paid to the tyres, specifically checking that the front tyres are fitted in accordance with sidewall instructions and that the rear tyres have sufficient tread depth, as these were recurring points of failure and advisories. Additionally, verify the operation of all stop lamps and the alignment of the headlamp beams to ensure the previous corrections for the dangerous lighting faults and incorrect beam images remain effective.
