2014 Suzuki Alto 1.0L Petrol · CA64 ACU

The 2026‑01‑13 MOT at 103,121 miles resulted in a pass, confirming that the previously noted front suspension arm pin or bush wear and the front inner brake disc wear are currently within acceptable limits and no structural or mechanical failures were recorded. Since the 2025 test at 100,932 miles the vehicle has shown a stable maintenance record, with no worsening of suspension or brake conditions and the engine management light remained inactive. The mileage has risen from 48,101 miles in December 2019 to 103,121 miles in January 2026, an increase of 55,020 miles over roughly 6.5 years, averaging about 8,500 miles per year, which aligns with the typical 8,593 miles per year for a 12‑year‑old Alto. However, the record shows irregular jumps: a rise of 5,319 miles between the 2019‑12‑17 and 2020‑12‑17 tests, and a jump of 9,716 miles from 2020‑12‑17 to the 2021‑12‑16 test, suggesting periods of higher usage or possible odometer discrepancies that merit verification. A buyer should therefore inspect the front suspension components for excessive play or worn bushes, verify the condition and thickness of the front brake discs and pads, and check the offside rear wheel bearing for roughness or play. The history of registration lamp and engine MIL failures indicates that all exterior lighting and the engine management system should be tested for proper operation, while tyre tread depth and sidewall condition should be examined given the recurring wear noted near legal limits.
