2013 Suzuki Carry 0.7L Petrol · BW63 SSV

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having achieved a clean MOT pass in February 2026 at 60,128 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable and improving, as the mechanical and-related concerns identified in previous years have been addressed. The absence of any defects in the most recent inspection suggests the current owner is proactive in resolving advisory items flagged by the DVSA testers. The mileage profile is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,600 miles per year. Data shows a significant increase in usage between March 2025 and February 2026, where the vehicle covered nearly 8,000 miles in eleven months, compared to much shorter intervals previously. While low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can accelerate the degradation of rubber-based components such as bushes and seals due to age and oxidation rather than mechanical friction. A buyer should specifically inspect the steering and braking systems during a physical evaluation. The March 2025 test at 52,318 miles flagged play in the steering column and limited travel on the park brake lever. While the February 2026 pass indicates these issues were rectified, the buyer should verify the steering remains free of excessive play and the handbrake holds firmly on gradients. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion is also essential, as low mileage often masks underlying surface rust developing over time.
