AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the recent MOT history. The most recent test conducted on August 2, 2025 at 96,378 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows consecutive clean passes in 2024 and 2022, indicating that the car has been maintained to a standard that meets regulatory requirements. The lack of recurring advisories suggests the previous owners have addressed potential issues before they escalated into failure points. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,884 miles per year. Between June 2022 and August 2025, the car covered 16,488 miles, showing a steady rate of use without significant periods of inactivity. The gap between the 2022 and 2024 tests reflects a two-year interval, but the subsequent return to annual testing shows a consistent schedule. The relatively low mileage for the age typically reduces the expected wear on heavy-duty drivetrain components and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage city cars. While the digital record is clean, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the structural integrity, particularly the sills and wheel arches, where Suzuki models of this era are prone to corrosion. Since the initial failure in June 2022 at 79,890 miles was immediately followed by a pass, the specific cause of that failure is not documented in the summary provided. Check for signs of minor fluid leaks or uneven brake caliper wear, as these components were not flagged as advisories in the most recent tests. The overall data suggests a well-kept example that has avoided a trend of mechanical neglect.
